PAIHO® is reducing the carbon footprint and promoting sustainability by offering our ECO Upcycled Non-Woven Fabric. It is about reimagining waste as a valuable resource. PAIHO’s Solution: Upcycling with Needle-Punch Technology PAIHO® utilizes waste yarn and fabric scraps, materials often deemed unrecyclable, as the foundation for upcycled non-woven fabric. This process involves: - Collecting and Sorting: Gathering waste yarn and fabric scraps and meticulously separating them from impurities.
- Needle-Punching: Employing a needle-punch process, a mechanical technique that interlocks fibers, creating a strong and durable non-woven material.
- Composition: Ensuring the final product contains at least 50% stocking waste yarn, demonstrating a commitment to high-volume upcycling.
- Embossing: Adding texture and design to the fabric through embossing, further enhancing its versatility.
The Benefits: Versatility and Sustainability The resulting upcycled non-woven fabric offers a multitude of benefits: - Reduced Waste: Diverting textile waste from landfills and extending the lifespan of valuable materials.
- Sustainable Production: Minimizing the need for virgin materials and reducing the environmental impact associated with traditional textile manufacturing.
- Diverse Applications: The fabric’s versatility allows for use in various industries, from automotive and furniture to packaging and consumer goods.
- Composite Material: The fabric can be used as a composite material, providing strength and structure to other products.
- Filler Material: The material can be used as a filler, providing padding and insulation.
- Customization: Post-treatments like laser-cutting, embroidery, and printing enable personalization and tailored solutions for specific applications.
