Issues with the current ways of recycling:
1
Large consumption of oil, gas etc. for transporting recycling waste across oceans.
2
Large quantities of chemical consumption and important source of micro-plastic contamination.
3
Chemical treatments such as dyeing create additional negative impacts for the environment.
4
Recycled fibers with residual foreign material are weaker than virgin fibers and continually shed microplastics more easily during it’s lifespan
