Sustainable Apparel Tagging Solution
Our Ecotach Recycled (rPA) Fasteners meet the needs of environmentally
conscious retailers, brand owners and consumers who want to reduce
their environmental footprint. Switching to our Recycled (rPA) Fasteners
for tag/label attaching demonstrates brand innovation and environmental
responsibility.
Lower Landfills
Ecotach Recycled (rPA) Fasteners are made of recycled polyamide (rPA).
The environmental benefit created by using at least 70% “post consumer”
waste from recycled carpet is substantial:
• Every master carton of fasteners eliminates 60 sq ft (5.5 sq meters) of
carpet which is equivalent to half the sq ft of an average size bedroom in
the US*
* The average size of a bedroom in the US is 132sq ft in a home under 2500sq ft.
Industry Insights
Did you know that Americans discard about 1.5-2 Million tons of carpet
each year (according to a case study on recycling post consumer carpet
by Carnegie Mellon University)? Almost all of this carpet is hauled away
and disposed of in landfills, at a cost of roughly $100 million a year.
According to How Stuff Works, Nylon is the most common carpet fiber on
the market today, accounting for almost 65% of U.S. carpet sales. It is a
highly resilient material that contains valuable chemical compounds that
can be recovered and reused. This is why it is important to recycle nylon
carpet instead of throwing it in the landfill.
