We use recycled material cleaned from the sea and landscape. In this way we reduce the energy and the number of new raw materials on the market and in this way we save on the earth's resources.
Let's talk Trash & ECO NYL®
ECO NYL® Regressen nylon is a sustainable material made by recycling discarded fishing nets and other plastic waste. Each fabric is unique because the waste found in the sea and on beaches is recycled, giving each product a unique touch since each material is unique and has its own story. By using ECO NYL® products, you can be sure that you are contributing to a more sustainable future while getting a high-quality and durable product. By recycling waste, we contribute to reducing resources and energy use. How the magic happens The process of making ECO nyl from waste to fabric is a multi-stage process that typically involves the
Following steps:
Collection: Fishing nets and other plastic waste are collected from the sea, beaches, or collection systems.
Sorting: The collected waste is sorted by type and quality. This is an essential part of the process since different types of plastic waste require different treatment.
Washing: The collected waste is washed and cleaned thoroughly to remove all debris and contaminants. Crushing: The clean waste is crushed into smaller pieces to prepare it for recycling.
Melting: The crushed plastic pieces are melted down into a malleable mass in a special oven.
Spinning: The molten mass is pressed through a spinning wheel to create threads of different thicknesses and lengths.
Weaving: The threads are then used to weave the fabric together into the desired structure and thickness.
Dyeing and finishing: The fabric can then be dyed and treated to achieve the desired properties and qualities.
Voila! Waste has never looked so good.
