PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) is a highly recyclable plastic resin and a form of polyester. It's a popular choice for packaging because it's inexpensive, lightweight, resealable, shatter-resistant and recyclable, in its recycled form, called RPET, is used to make a variety of end products. Fabric for T-shirt, underwear, sweaters, jackets and many other products.
While the future of plastic recycling is promising, however, it still has a long way to go. For the last 50 years, plastic consumption has continued to increase but our collective ability to effectively recycle this material has lagged behind.

Creating a new life for plastic water bottles is a great start.
Creating a garment using RPET makes fashion a force for good.
Choosing trims made with RPET on your sustainable apparel makes you staying true to yourself.

Stop F**king The Planet,
