Recycled poly fleece (rPET) is made from discarded water bottles and is a fantastic soft and sustainable material.
AS CLEAN AS IT IS CUTE
We are Oeko-tex and Reach certified, which guarantees you that your cuddly friends are free of any harmful substances or materials. rPET is in fact just like a normal polyester but made with recycled materials to lower our carbon footprint.
HOW DOES THAT WORK ?
- Well, first we collect plastic that otherwise would have ended up in our oceans or landfills;
- Then the bottles are broken down into small flakes;
- After being washed the flakes are melted into a paste and new yarns are pulled;
- Finally, it's reprocessed into soft and resistant recycled polyester yarn (rPET), ready to be spun and knitted into the softest earth friendly toys.
What's The Impact ?
Besides diverting plastic from ending up in the oceans, recycled polyester is one of the greenest and least energy consuming materials you can buy. The numbers below are compared to a virgin polyester (non recycled).

EARTH FRIENDLY DYES
The Beyondbun collection uses Oeko-Tex® certified dyes, which means they are non-toxic and free from harmful chemicals. The process is water-efficient and eco friendly as we capture and reuse waste water during the washing processes.
