Common environmentally friendly fabrics mainly include two categories: environmentally friendly fabrics for daily use and environmentally friendly fabrics for industrial use. The following is a detailed introduction to these two types of environmentally friendly fabrics:
1、 Environmentally friendly fabrics for daily use
RPET fabric: RPET fabric is a new type of recycled and environmentally friendly fabric, full name Recycled PET Fabric. Its raw material is RPET yarn made from recycled PET bottles (plastic bottles) through a series of processing. This fabric can be recycled and reused, which helps save energy, oil consumption, and reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
Organic cotton: Organic cotton does not use chemical products in agricultural production, and mainly relies on organic fertilizers, biological pest control, and natural cultivation management. This cotton fabric is non-toxic and harmless, and is relatively friendly to both human health and the environment.
Colored cotton: Colored cotton is a new type of cotton with natural color fibers, cultivated using modern biotechnology. Compared with ordinary cotton, colored cotton is softer, more breathable, elastic, and comfortable to wear.
Bamboo fiber: Bamboo fiber is a short fiber yarn produced from bamboo pulp fiber using bamboo as raw material. The fabric made of bamboo fiber is wear-resistant, does not produce pilling, has high moisture absorption and quick drying properties, high breathability, and has a smooth and full feel, as soft as silk. In addition, bamboo fiber also has good natural antibacterial effects and environmental friendliness.
Soy protein fiber: Soy protein fiber is a biodegradable and regenerated plant protein fiber that possesses many excellent properties of natural and chemical fibers. Its fabric has a cashmere like feel, a silk like luster, and cotton's breathability and warmth.
Hemp fiber: Hemp fiber is a versatile natural fiber with a thick and coarse fiber texture. Hemp fiber has higher strength than cotton fiber and is easy to absorb and release moisture. In addition, hemp fiber can also be blended with other fibers to form new fabric characteristics.
Modal: Modal is an artificial fiber made from wood pulp fibers. It has various excellent properties of natural fibers and synthetic fibers, such as softness, smoothness, breathability, etc.
Organic wool: Organic wool is produced on farms that are free of chemicals and genetically modified organisms, and these flocks are raised and grown entirely in nature. The fabric made of organic wool is environmentally friendly and comfortable.
Natural wood Tencel: Natural wood Tencel is an artificial fiber made from wood pulp fibers through special processing techniques. It has the advantages of natural environmental protection, moisture absorption and antibacterial properties.
2、 Industrial environmentally friendly fabrics
PVC fabric: PVC fabric is a type of inorganic non-metallic material that is environmentally friendly, energy-saving, and recyclable. It exhibits good durability and waterproofness in practical applications.
Polyester Fiber: Polyester fiber is a synthetic fiber made from purified terephthalic acid (PTA) or dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) and ethylene glycol (EG) as raw materials. Polyester fiber fabric has good wear resistance, wrinkle resistance, and elasticity.
Glass Fiber: Glass fiber is an inorganic non-metallic material with excellent performance, made from glass balls or waste glass through high-temperature melting, drawing, winding, weaving and other processes. Fiberglass fabric has high strength, corrosion resistance, and good insulation properties.
These environmentally friendly fabrics have a wide range of applications in home, industrial, and daily life fields, not only helping to protect the environment, but also providing a comfortable and healthy wearing experience.
