How recycled polyester fiber is generated?
PET bottles and other polyester products are collected from recycling centers or waste management facilities.
The collected materials are sorted based on color and type to ensure uniformity in the final product.
The sorted materials undergo thorough cleaning processes to remove impurities such as labels, caps, and contaminants.
The cleaned materials are shredded into small pieces to facilitate the melting process.
The shredded PET is melted and then extruded into fine filaments, which are spun into yarns.
The extruded filaments are spun into yarns, which can be used for various textile applications. Recycled polyester fiber comes in various types and specifications, including:
Recycled Polyester Yarn: This type of recycled polyester fiber is spun into yarns that can be woven or knitted into fabrics for apparel, home textiles, and industrial applications.
Recycled Polyester Staple Fiber: Staple fibers are short-length fibers that are used in non-woven applications such as insulation, padding, and filtration.
Recycled Polyester Filament: Filament fibers are long continuous strands used in applications such as sewing thread, ropes, and geotextiles.
