Contact customer service for technical information, test data and safety data sheets for flame retardant.

STEP ONE.

Soft drink and detergent bottles made from PET identified by the recycling symbol are collected from consumers.

STEP TWO.

Contaminants like lids and sticky labels are removed. Bottles are chipped into tiny pellets.

STEP THREE.

Pellets are washed and sanitized.

STEP FOUR.

Pellets and colours are fed into a hopper. A heater at the base of the hopper melts the pellets to form a free-flowing resin.

STEP FIVE.

Resin is pumped through a sophisticated shower-rose device, known as a spinneret.

STEP SIX.

Cold air fans set the fine fibers extruded from the spinneret.

STEP SEVEN.

Fibers are drawn and cut, then are blended into a web.

STEP EIGHT.

Web is compressed, cut and ready for use.
