Recycled polyester (rPET)

Recycled polyester is rarely made from recycled polyster fabrics, but from recycled plastic bottles. Polyester can be made from bottles, but not the other way around. Recycled polyester shares most of the same properties as polyester.

Use: Shoes, clothing and reusable shopping bags.

End of life (producer claim): Recyclable in closed loop only.
