Have you ever wondered where your clothing comes from or how it is made? It’s interesting to consider, isn’t it? That something is Earth-friendly and features some killer-styled pieces: a new trend in fashion that happens to look great as much as it helps the planet! Bornature has invented one such thing: an eco-fabric reclaimed from water bottles. This requires us to take used plastic bottles and instead of tossing them away, help transform them into clothes that we wear regularly.
Suppose you are sipping from a plastic water bottle. What happens to it after you finish drinking it? People mostly waste it [and] it goes to a landfill, which is where trash goes and accumulates her. And this can be very bad for our planet! But Bornature had a brilliant thought: instead of disposing off those bottles, we can recycle them and turn them into fabric that we can wear.
It is a very simple but very interesting process of making this fabric. To start with, they get the water bottles from recycling centers. Next, she and her team chop the bottles into small pieces and wash them thoroughly. They melt down the plastic into liquid, then. The liquid plastic is then spun into fine threads. At last, the threads are intertwined, forming a flexible, robust fabric. This wonder material that is created through this process is great for creating so many different types of garments, including T-shirts, jackets, and even leggings! Isn’t that cool?
Plastic garbage is a massive environmental challenge, but by using Bornature's recycled fabric, we can help reduce the fate of plastic being added to the landfills. To make our planet cleaner and safer, we need to recycle these water bottles. Not to mention, if you use recycled plastic, that takes less energy! Most traditional fabric is made from either cotton or polyester, both of which consume tremendous amounts of energy and natural resources to create. Creating fabric from recycled water bottles, however, consumes significantly less energy and is much more environmentally friendly.
Recycling water bottles isn’t a new concept, but making fabric from them is a huge transformation for the fashion world. Since the birth of Bornature: we here at Bornature want to betake efforts to change the fashion world by designing eco-friendly stylish clothes. At the McKenzie Collection, we believe that fabric sustainable fabrics, like recycled water bottles, are the future of fashion. And honestly, who wouldn’t want to be wearing clothes that are good for the planet and look great?
Bornature steps up to the plate with recycled water bottle fabric, the product of real team research and design work and a desire to make a difference. So they saw the pressing average problem of plastic waste surrounding us and thought, how can we do something new and innovative? First, we struggled to understand how to create wearable fabric from recycled water bottles, but with consistency and dedication, the small TEAM einable it to make it through. The eco-chic final product provides a fashion, but it is also a forever-wear sensibility to protect the environment.
That emerging fabric offers hope to each of us to be a better person and save our world with every element of our clothing. Every time we decide to wear clothing constructed from recycled materials, we are making a difference for the planet.”
