The collaboration
Co-creation is key
For the interior business creating strong textiles with a soft touch is imperative. The collaboration between Waste2Wear and Textaafoam is a combination of profound customer understanding and creative product development for truly sustainable products. The outcome is WOVENBOTTLES: a collection of quality upholstery fabrics made from plastic bottles, offered in many different colours.
Consumers CAN
make a difference!
WOVENBOTTLES mission is to make consumers conscious about the choices they have! It’s crucial to show how they can make a difference with their buying power. For instance, in a regular three seat sofa, upholstered with the quality Regain, around 500 plastic waste bottles are used. Waste that is “regained” and that is not polluting our environment anymore.
Two product lines to start with
Until now we have launched two product lines, with a unique and specially developed 100% RPET (made from recycled plastic bottles) backing:
REGAIN made from 100% RPET, in which the chenille yarn creates deep and warm colours.
SOIL which contains 60% RPET and has a more sporty character.
