We use 100% post-consumer recycled polyester. This means that the fabric is actually made from re-processed waste plastic like drinks bottles or food containers. Our polyester comes from Taiwan, where recycling is far more prevalent. With limited space, and ‘cool’ relations with its far larger neighbour, China, they have had to crack down on waste – otherwise they would just be over-run with rubbish.

in our range:

Lightweight: a fast wicking lightweight material for activewear and base layers.

Ultra: a special bonded fabric with a comfortable fleece inner and a smooth outside.

Pros: Recycled products reduces waste, and require less energy to produce than virgin fibres.

Cons: Polyester does not biodegrade.
