Oystex
THE PROCESS
From the water to your wardrobe
Phase 1
OYSTER SHELLS
Oyster shells are recycled and then pulverized into a fine powder consisting of calcium carbonate.
Phase 2
PLASTIC BOTTLES
The oyster shell powder is then combined with recycled plastic (RPET).
Phase 3
PELLETS
The crushed oyster shell and recycled plastic are molded into small pellets.
Phase 4
The pellets are then melted and strung into yarn, which is used to create our Oystex garments.
