Fashionable backpack made of a plastic bottle! Recycled plastics in everyday wear

The German brand Ucon Acrobatics, which produces youth bags, makes its contribution to the preservation of the environment.

It is unlikely that a young fashionista thinks about how and from what her fashionable backpack is made, and what a difficult path she went through before a stylish accessory adorned her slender figure. Recycled plastic items are the latest trend in global fashion and, at the same time, a necessary contribution to the global cause of ecology.

Although the company is not involved in cleaning the oceans from the 140 million tons of plastic floating in it, at least it at least recycles the accumulated such garbage so that it does not get there.

The technology is not too complicated and is not new for a long time, the corresponding conveyor equipment is used. First, the scrap is cleaned and rinsed, and the covers and labels are removed. Then the plastic is sorted by color and texture. Further, the material is crushed and melted, using a special machine, the mass is divided into the finest threads, from which synthetic fabric for the bag is obtained. To craft one backpack, you need to recycle up to 20 bottles.

All this makes it possible to more than recoup all the costs of the company, since the cost of one such accessory reaches € 90 and is still in demand.
