Recycled polyester material
01 / MATERIAL

From existing resources to new possibilities.

Recycled polyester provides a way to transform existing plastic-based materials into new textile resources. Through recycling, regeneration, spinning and fabric development, these materials can become part of new textile applications.

At SUSTEXIA, recycled materials are considered together with construction, finishing and performance requirements to create fabrics that work for real applications.

02 / CHARACTERISTICS

Material qualities

01

Lightweight

Suitable for lightweight constructions where comfort and mobility matter.

02

Versatile

Adaptable across different fabric constructions, finishes and apparel applications.

03

Durable

Can be developed for fabrics requiring dependable everyday performance.

04

Recycled

Uses recycled polyester as an alternative material pathway for textile development.

03 / MATERIAL DEVELOPMENT

From fiber
to fabric.

The final character of a material is shaped by more than its fiber. Yarn, construction and finishing all influence the finished fabric.

01

Fiber

Recycled polyester feedstock becomes the starting point.

02

Yarn

Fiber characteristics are translated into yarn suitable for the intended fabric.

03

Construction

Weave, knit and fabric density influence structure, hand feel and performance.

04

Finishing

Finishing can further shape the surface, handle and functional characteristics.

Specialty textile performance
04 / PERFORMANCE

Performance can be designed into the material.

Different constructions and finishing techniques allow recycled polyester fabrics to be developed for specific performance needs.

01 Water Repellent
02 Breathable
03 Quick Dry
04 Soft Touch
05 Stretch
06 Durable
05 / APPLICATIONS

Made for real-world use.

06 / DEVELOPMENT

The right material starts with the right question.

Material requirements are rarely defined by fiber alone. Weight, construction, hand feel, stretch, surface, durability and finishing can all influence the final fabric.

We work with these parameters together to develop materials around specific applications and performance requirements.
