Description
What is Recycled Yarn?
The textile waste of South Africa is only 13% recycled, balance all goes to landfills, incinerators and dumps which land up in oceans. Recycled yarn, used by Bunty?s is made of virgin grade left over fabrics. This is one of our great efforts in going Green and saving our environment and helping our planet. It would not only reduce carbon emissions by not incinerating but also help in reducing waste. By reusing the cotton we would be also reducing our carbon footprint and water consumption in the agricultural industry, which makes it more sustainable.
How is the Recycled Yarn made?
Recycled yarn is made by crushing the original left over fabrics to attain slivers. These fibres are then rewoven but are not strong enough so polyester fibres are blended in. The polyester percentage can be from 20-50% depending on the strength of the actual fabrics. At Bunty?s we try very hard to attain maximum strength by adding mostly 20% polyester to our cotton. This helps us keep the properties of the products still having maximum Cotton percentage thus not loosing on the absorbency and softness of our products.
Drawbacks of Recycled Yarn
Cotton cannot be recycled all the time, after a few recycles the threads are very weak and cannot be used. The testing is not available for Recycled Yarn as the fibers which are blended are not always of 1 category only. The dyes on the recycled yarn, would bleed more than the virgin fabrics. The cost of recycling the yarn currently is more expensive than using standard virgin cotton growth.
Washcare:
Recycled Yarn products should be washed only as cold wash.
Please keep dark colours separate form lights, as the dark colours will tend to bleed
Do not use strong chemical based washing powders or liquids
Do not tumble dry
Do not use Bleach
