SEAQUAL® YARN

Seaqual® Yarn is a unique 100% recycled yarn made from 10% Upcycled Marine Plastic, recovered from our oceans, beaches and rivers, and 90% recycled PET packaging waste from households. It’s almost identical in look and feel to virgin polyester yarn, but reduces water waste by 40%, energy consumption by 50%, and carbon emissions by 60% during the production process. Seaqual Yarn® is fully recyclable.

ELASTANE / RUBBER STRING

Depending on the model, a small percentage of elastane, also known as spandex or Lycra®, and rubber string is used to ensure an easy slip-on and a snug fit. Seads 001, 2% elastane; Seads 002 and 003, 4% rubber string. These stretch fibers are not blended with the Sequal yarn and can be extracted before recycling.

Jute is a long, soft, and shiny natural fiber that is spun into long threads. It’s one of the most useful organic materials and is called the “golden fiber” due to its beautiful color and exceptional versatility. Jute is 100% naturally biodegradable and incredibly safe as it requires no dangerous chemicals to grow or manufacture.

NATURAL RUBBER

Natural rubber comes from the Para rubber tree, a sustainable and highly regenerative flowering tree commonly found in countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia. Natural rubber contains no dangerous chemicals, metals, or petroleum, can be 100% recycled after use, and naturally biodegrades without any pollutants that cause damage to the environment.

COLOR
LINE-UP.

Seaqual® Yarn is the result of the first industry collaboration of SEAQUAL INITIATIVE and is what our tone on tone knitted uppers are made of. Dyed with environmentally friendly technologies, you can hardly believe the high-quality yarn was once plastic marine litter and packaging waste. Bright and strong, the yarn reflects the vibrant colors of our oceans and its underwater life. And of all the fun and joy we associate with it!
