The R in RPET means recycling. PET is polyethylene terephthalate. The full name is polyethylene terephthalate, a high polymer, derived from the dehydration condensation reaction of ethylene terephthalate. Ethylene terephthalate is obtained by the esterification reaction of terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol.
RPET means (recycled) polyethylene terephthalate, which is mostly used in industry, clothing, and home textiles.
What is RPET fabric?
(1) Recycled PET fabric is a new type of environmentally friendly recycled fabric. Its yarn is extracted from discarded mineral water bottles and Coke bottles. It is also commonly known as RPET fabric. This product is very popular in foreign countries, especially developed countries in Europe and America because it is waste recycling.
(2) RPET fabric is made of recycled environmentally friendly fiber raw materials recovered from Coke bottles. The recycled Coke bottles are crushed into fragments and then processed by spinning. They can be recycled and effectively reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Compared with the conventional production of polyester fibers Save nearly 80% of energy.
【RPET Yarn Manufacturing Process】
Coke bottle recycling → Coke bottle quality inspection and separation → Coke bottle slicing → spinning, cooling, and collecting → Recycled Fabric yarn → weaving into the fabric
