Repreve® recycled polyester from Unifi, Inc.

Repreve® recycled fibers in Dri-Lex Eco fabrics offer distinct advantages to you and your consumers that are easily understood:

1. They are initially certified as recycled and can be verified at any point in the lifecycle of a product through independent third-party testing.
2. Each pound of Repreve® polyester fibers saves the energy equivalent of 0.4 gallons of gasoline with fewer chemical by-products created in the recycling process vs. production of virgin polyester.
3. Their characteristics in a finished fabric are close to those of virgin polyester in critical areas such as durability, hand, abrasion resistance, etc.
4. The price gap between Repreve recycled polyester and virgin polyester is rapidly closing.
