TWE supports Plastic Bank
We are a proud partner of Plastic Bank
27.01.2022
As part of our sustainability strategy, one of our goals is to use even more recycled PET in our products.
That's why we have been working with Plastic Bank since 2021.
We use their "Social Plastic" fibers for the production of our sustainable product line rePEaT.
In 2021, TWE Group used 65,000 kg of Social Plastic from Plastic Bank for the production of our nonwovens. This is equivalent to 3.25 million 500 ml PET bottles, which have now found a new use as recycled fibers in our products.
This contribution has helped avoid over 2 billion bottles of plastic in the ocean. That equates to more than 40 million kilograms of plastic no longer entering our oceans.
Every day, collectors collect plastic waste in the ocean, which is exchanged at local branches for rewards that help meet a family's basic needs.
