1 2 The collected
1 2 The collected plastics are washed, sorted, pressed and processed into a granulate. The secondary raw material produced in this way is crushed and heated up. FROM PLASTIC TO UMBRELLA 3 The molten plastic is pressed into threads in the melt spinning process and then woven into polyester braid. 4 This special material is then used to create the ÖkoBrella roof.
NEW LIFE FOR USED PLASTIC When it comes to sustainability, plastic is probably not the first thing you think of. This material can also be used in an ecologically sensible way. Our ÖkoBrella umbrellas are the best example: the yarn for their STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX ® certified covers is made of recycled plastics. For this purpose, used plastics, so-called post-consumer material from households, institutional facilities and industrial plants, are processed in just a few steps.
