RE-PET INTO APPAREL
A process that transforms used plastic bottles into new apparel
01.
Identification
The Solution is represented by the production of clothing apparel and accessories (i.e. bags) in polyester recycled from used plastic bottles. The Solution aims at providing a circular production process where new products are created from waste. The objective is to manage a close loop where both the collection of plastic waste and the production of apparel occur in the same country/location hence creating a complete circular economy. Pielleitalia has developed a certified supply chain The Solution allows the re-use of waste to generate products with the same quality and characteristics as the non-recycled alternative. In this way, large amounts of CO2 emissions are saved and this would have a positive impact on people and the environment.
