This All-Over Print High-Waisted Bikini Bottom is a unique product as it’s our first swimsuit made from recycled polyester. Take a minute to read about rPET:

What is recycled polyester?

Recycled polyester (rPET for short) is a fabric that’s produced from synthetic fibers. Recycled polyester is produced by recycling existing materials (like plastic bottles and packaging) but still has all the characteristics and performance as a regular polyester, making it a more sustainable fabric alternative.

How’s recycled polyester made?

Recycled polyester is made by crushing plastic products into small pieces. These small pieces are then processed into yarn, transformed into a fiber, and in the end—made into a fabric.

What are the advantages of recycled polyester?

Producing rPet takes 33% to 53% less energy than creating polyester from scratch. Also, rPet produces approximately 54.6% fewer CO2 emissions to the air than virgin polyester. 

By using recycled materials to make things like this All-Over Print High-Waisted Bikini Bottom, at least some of the plastic waste produced doesn’t end up in landfills.
