fabric for sustainable sewing

Recycled fabric is textile material created by reclaiming and processing waste fibers, materials, or discarded garments. Instead of being sent to landfills, these old materials—like plastic bottles (turned into recycled polyester or rPET) or old clothing (turned into recycled cotton)—are cleaned, broken down, and spun into new yarn.

This process significantly reduces the need for virgin resources, conserves water and energy, and helps lessen textile waste, making it a cornerstone of sustainable fashion and eco-friendly textiles.
