recycled polyester fabric

It is, in fact, a double knit fabric, like a Ponte Roma – however, it would be unfair to compare the two as they are often made from different compositions. Differs from before, now Scuba fabrics have much more different compositions. Polyester, polyester/viscose are the regular ones, besides these, they can also be polyester/nylon, polyester/modal, modal/nlyon and so on. Whilst Ponte Roma fabrics are usually from viscose and lycra. Scuba is generally used to make dance-wear, leggings and dresses (think of evening or party dresses) and is quite easy to care for.

What is good about recycled polyester? Environmental Benefits Recycled polyester: Diverts used plastic from landfills. Prevents used plastic from ending up in our oceans and harming marine life. Advantages to recycled polyester: • Using more recycled polyester reduces our dependence on petroleum as the raw material for our fabric needs. • Diverting PET bottles for this process reduces landfill, and thus reduces soil contamination and air and water pollution and requires less energy than virgin polyester. • Garments created from recycled polyester aim to be continuously recycled with no degradation of quality, allowing us to minimize wastage. This means polyester garment manufacture could potentially become a closed-loop system.
