Be the change you want to see in fabrics

In its commitment to innovation and ecology, Santanderina presents R/TURN SMART RECYCLED FABRICS, a selection of high ecological fabrics and finishes to drive circular economy solutions in the textile world.

With a vertical production process with controlled traceability, we recycle materials like TENCEL® and cotton, turning it into new fabrics based on responsible manufacturing.

The result are recycled fabrics meeting all quality standards.

INDUSTRIAL PROCESS

PRE-CONSUMER recovered cottonOriginIt comes from the grinding and use of scraps during the textile production process (spinning, weaving, manufacturing, etc.).Depending on the quality of the origin, the better the resulting grinded fibre will be.

Supplier• It can be obtained in companies

specialized in the grinding process, without taking part in the raw material supply.

• Depending on the grinding company, the desired material to be grinded can be delivered and so pay for the process (better traceability).

POST-CONSUMER recovered cottonOrigin It comes from the grinding of garments that the owner decides to discard.We can ensure a full tracking for this kind of material from the origin to the fibre.

Supplier· It can be obtained in companies specialized in the grinding process, which use discarded

clothes or clothes that cannot be used anymore as raw material. · We can buy the fibre directly in CÁRITAS KOOPERA, which manages all the steps of the process.· We could manage the collecting –with other companies or organizations– and decide where we

want to carry out each step during the process.

Process1. Collection 2. Clothes sorting by colour, composition and type of fabric 3. Removal of all those components which should not be grinded (zips, buttons, labels, seams, etc.)4. Grinding preparation

Recycled polyester fabrics

Recycled polyester is made from recycled materials (PET and polyester fabrics).

· THE ENERGY NEEDED TO MAKE THE RPET IS LESS THAN WHAT IS NEEDED TO MAKE THE VIRGIN POLYESTER

· RECYCLING PET TO CREATE THE FABRICS PREVENTS IT FROM GOING TO LANDFILL

· USING MORE RECYCLED POLYESTER REDUCES OUR DEPENDENCE ON PETROLEUM AS THE RAW MATERIAL FOR OUR FABRIC NEEDSeco-friendly material
