Recycled PET
As in nature where everything is transformed and reused
Recycled pet
PET is the plastic that water bottles and other soft drinks are made of. It is a plastic made from crude oil and natural gas. Old, unused bottles made from these materials, when chemically processed, can be transformed into recycled polyester yarn, one of the most used fibers in fashion. As a clothing fabric, it has its advantages: it holds its shape well and is resistant to creasing, shrinking and stretching. We use this yarn in our more technical garments, such as our sportswear, where we manage to achieve excellent performance in terms of resistance to rubbing, ensuring a longer life for the product.
Circularity - a new life
PET can be 100% recycled and offer new eco-sustainable products with excellent qualities.
It is recyclable without harmful emissions. Recycled PET is environmentally friendly, corporate carbon dioxide emissions are significantly reduced, for every kilogram of recycled PET up to 3 kg of CO2 are saved.
Once the plastic bottles are collected, they are taken to recycling centers where, after a long process, they are transformed into flakes of such high quality that they can be reused. The benefits of this process in nature are many, 50% of energy is saved compared to production on virgin raw material, during recycling, the fiber created does not lose its properties and can be reused infinitely. It allows us to recover large quantities of waste present on beaches and landfills around the world, thus helping a circular economy.
Clothing made from recycled fibres
This fabric is becoming more and more popular and represents an environmental solution to the waste problem. That is why at CASAGiN we use it for our sportswear line. Thanks to this ingenious system it is possible to reduce the amount of raw materials that can be extracted from the ground and needed for our growing need for clothing and at the same time diverts waste from overflowing landfills that are toxic to the surrounding environment. Recycling PET reduces carbon emissions and the energy needed to transform plastic into a wearable fiber.
This precious yarn is therefore characterised by great resistance, breathability, durability over time, sustainability and low environmental impact.
