ECONYL®
ECONYL®, the rebirth of nylon, turns waste into wonder. By recycling discarded fishing nets and other nylon waste, we're crafting a future where fashion meets responsibility.
ECONYL® sets a high standard in sustainable material usage by transforming waste into a valuable resource. Made from recovered nylon waste like fishing nets and fabric scraps, ECONYL® significantly reduces the reliance on new nylon production, which is typically energy-intensive and dependent on oil. The recycling process of turning waste into ECONYL® consumes less water and energy, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80% compared to the production of virgin nylon. This innovative approach not only helps clean our oceans by removing waste but also addresses the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions in textile manufacturing.
ECONYL's contribution to sustainable fashion extends beyond recycling; it represents a circular model in material usage. By offering the same quality as virgin nylon, ECONYL® can be recycled, recreated, and remolded repeatedly without losing its integrity. This process leads to a significant decrease in environmental impact, including lower water pollution and reduced energy consumption. Utilizing ECONYL® in apparel manufacturing is a powerful step towards a more sustainable future, aligning fashion with environmental stewardship.
The Eco-Logic Behind It
Our journey with ECONYL® reflects our deep commitment to ocean conservation and reducing waste. We transform discarded fishing nets into high-quality regenerated nylon, aiding in ocean cleanup and promoting a sustainable cycle of production. This initiative not only contributes to cleaning the oceans but also reduces both water and energy use, crafting a sustainable narrative for nylon production.
