PYRATEX® Active

PYRATEX® active fabrics are made with upcycled cotton originating from post industrial textile waste. We collect with out fiber partner textile residues, used gar- ments and fabric waste from productions all over the world.

1kg of virgin cotton needs around 13,000 litres of water during farming, processing and dying. 1kg of our upcycled cotton needs 0 litres: it is not farmed, processed, or dyed.

The fibers are mechanically recycled, and the yarn is spun in Spain, a process during which 50% of the energy used is solar. It is not a chemical recycling process, and no pulp is involved: the fiber is, and remains, cotton.

EVERY 10 KG OF RECYCLED POLYAMIDE SAVES:

• The amount of CO2 equivalent to 4000 led lights turned on for one hour

• The equivalent of consuming 100 bottles of water
