Vescom Launched a New Range of Recycled PET Upholstery Textiles
December 17, 2021 - By Elena Rahman
Vescom launched a collection of eco-friendly upholstery. The brand used recycled PET bottles to create durable textiles. The upholstery is made from 100 percent recycled plastic waste. Vescom obtained the material for the upholstery collection from local sources. The bottles are transformed into a yarn that Vescom weaves into soft fabrics.
Using classic weaving techniques, the textile brand created four types of recycled upholstery options. The Wilson is a basic weave, while Avon is a melange. Norfolk is a grid, and Harding is a twill weave. The new eco-friendly range is available in 59 different colors, each of which is created by mixing colored and grey yarn together to obtain an even display of color.
