The fabric used in this product is a nylon yarn regenerated from discarded waste plastics, such as abandoned fishing nets and plastic bottles collected from our oceans. These post-consumer waste plastics are given a new life in form of our activewear through a process that involves breaking down the nylon polymer into monomers, then regenerating the nylon into a new yarn that has qualities similar, if not even better, than virgin yarn. The breakdown process is done with only temperature and steam, without the use of harmful chemical agents, in a renewable energy driven process. Reusing nylon to make ECONYL reduces the environmental impact of nylon by 80% compared with the material produced from crude oil.

Care Instructions

• You can safely machine wash your activewear at 40°C
• Do not tumble dry – it weakens the stretchy fabric
• Dry in shade to avoid fading
• Wash with similar colours to avoid discolouration
• Watch out for rough surfaces, zippers, bra clasps and buttons
