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 the All-Over Print Unisex Athletic Shorts, at least some of the plastic waste produced doesn’t end up in landfills.
