FROM PLASTIC BOTTLES TO FASHIONABLE CLOTHES
We think it's amazing that we can turn used plastic bottles into fashionable clothes. Polyester is one of the most popular materials in the textile industry because the fiber is so strong. That's why polyester clothes are long-lasting, easy to hold, and clean - they also do not curl!

Many plastic bottles float around in the world's garden, while others are thrown out at random places. The bottles pollute nature and take more than 1000 years to decompose. Fortunately, the bottles can be given new life, and contribute to a sustainable initiative to production of polyester, which we can all benefit from.

Recycled polyester is made from used plastic bottles and transformed into new polyester fibers. The recycled polyester we use here at I Say is "post-consumer", which means that the bottles have previously been used by consumers.

In this way, we help to recycle the many plastic bottles. For a recycled polyester T-shirt, approx. 10 pint PET plastic bottles.
