GREEN & INNOCENT RECYCLED COTTON
Recycled Cotton
Saving cotton fabric from the landfill and extending its life
by using it to create beautiful recycled cotton bags.
Recycled cotton is defined as cotton fabric that has been
converted back into cotton fibre so it can be reused to
make new textile products.
The process is simple; cotton products are separated by
type and colour, shredded by a machine into crude fibre
and then respun back into a yarn that can be woven into a
brand-new product.
It shares many of the same qualities as conventional cotton
in that it is light, breathable and quick-drying yet it has the
added benefits of preventing additional textile waste and
requiring very little resources in its production making it a
great sustainable material option for your resuable bags.
