RPET isan environmentally friendly fabric blend. RPET stands for Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate, or recycled PET. RPET is made from recycled polyesters, recycled plastics and pure, 100% organic cotton. RPET fabric blends are usually in a 50/50 ratio. Furthermore, 90% less water is used in the making of RPET clothing, dramatically decreasing the negative environmental impact of production. Our products that contain RPET yarn are made using recycled bottles.
