Unlike polyester, recycled polyester uses PET as the raw material. This is the same material that is used in clear plastic water bottles and recycling it to create the fabric prevents it from going to landfill. The process of converting PET into recycled polyester requires 33-53% less energy than normal polyester. Using more recycled polyester reduces our dependence on petroleum as the raw material for our fabric needs.
