Recycled Teddy Zip Up Jacket

The Material

Our GRS certified recycled teddy material comes from post-consumer waste like plastic bottles. Our supplier collects used water bottles, cleans leftover residue, sorts by color and grades, then shreds the plastic. This shredded content then enters a machine that creates fine fibers that sort of resemble wool. Once the fibers are carded (just a processing term that means the fibers are getting properly aligned and detangled), it's ready to be spun into a new yarn! And there you have it — soft recycled teddy garments!
