sustainability
Polyester is a petroleum derived form of plastic that is non-renewable, non-recyclable, and take hundreds of years to biodegrade.
Plantsilk is a proprietary plant based textile that is renewable and biodegradable. Published research shows that plant based (cellulose) fabrics are highly biodegradable, even more so than cotton.

When polyester is washed it releases hundreds of thousands of fibers from a single load of laundry into the water supply. Eventually these tiny fibers called microplastics reach the ocean.
In addition to ocean pollution, the production of polyester is capable of emitting 300 times more greenhouse gases than carbon dioxide and it also has high levels of toxic chemicals.
