Dope Dyeing consists in adding the colored pigment directly to the molten plastic solution, before the fiber is made. Unlike traditional processes in which yarns are produced and then dyed, with dope dyeing the pigments are trapped inside the plastic during the transformation process into a shape solid, becoming part of the new yarn. This approach allows for dyeing by heat transfer, without immersion in water.

Recycled polyester (rPET) is a material obtained from the recycling of used plastic bottles. From this process new polymers are obtained which are transformed into textile fiber which, in turn, it can be recycled again to give life to other plastic objects. rPET helps us reducing the industry’s reliance on fossil fuel sources and managing our resources in a more ethical way: using products to their full potential
