Reduce The Environmental Impact Of Your Printing With 100% Recycled Repreve® Fabrics
Repreve® is a yarn made from recycled materials and is considered one of the most earth-friendly fabric ingredients in the world. Every step of the production process is tightly managed and Repreve® must pass strict annual certifications by outside third parties.
Repreve® diverts waste, in the form of soda bottles, from the landfill. But tackling the problem is not just about recycling soda and water bottles, or post-consumer waste. Because behind every mound of post-consumer waste is a mountain of pre-consumer waste. (The waste created by manufacturers when they make products for consumers) Guess what? Unifi uses both to make Repreve® polyester.
Polyester And Nylon Come From The Same Source
Did you know... polyester, nylon, and water bottles all come from the same
natural resource. It is the natural resource in thousands of things we use every day. Computers. Auto hardware. Heart valves. Credit cards. Toys. And yes, even clothing. By recycling materials into Repreve® we are offsetting the need to produce new raw materials. Which helps reduce the demand for this precious natural resource.
