What is RPET? How is it different from RPET Felt?
RPET stands for recycled polyethylene tetraphyte (RPET), a yarn extracted from waste plastic bottles and then woven into a polyester fabric.RPET Felt, on the other hand, is made from ‘nonwovens’ using what is known as a needle-punch technology.
Because RPET and RPET Feltareessentially recycled plastic, they both help us make use of the large volumes of waste PET plastics available, as it is one of the easiest plastics to recycle.
For RPET bags, the plastic is broken down into tiny flakes, which are then melted to separate out the PET from any contaminates, and then reused to form bags. This is a flawless, significant transformation of dangerous waste into crude fiber yarns woven to make bags of various textures. This process reduces carbon footprint, which also means we are not exhaustingnatural resources.
Producing RPET Felt involves taking loose fibres of the plastic and “needling” them together in a needle-loom full of barbed needles which forces the fibres to push through and entangle themselves. Heat, pressure or moisture is used along with needle entanglement to hold the felt together, thus making a fine fabric ready. RPET Felt can made into soft, hard, stiff, plain or colored fabric based on the requirement. This process results in very minimal wastage which is in tune with our vision of economic development by eco-friendly means.
