How Millions of Plastic Bottles Become Premium Shopping Bags

How Millions of Plastic Bottles Become Premium Shopping Bags Follow the full journey of used plastic bottles as they are collected, sorted, washed, melted, spun into yarn, woven into fabric and sewn into a premium recycled shopping bag. In this video we go inside a large recycling factory to see how trucks deliver sacks of used PET bottles, how machines sort and clean them, and how the clean plastic flakes are turned into pellets, yarn and a midnight-navy fabric with a leather-grain finish. We then follow the fabric through cutting, sewing, hardware fitting, strength and water tests, packing and shipping until the finished bag reaches the shop. What you will see: Trucks delivering giant sacks of used plastic bottles Sorting by plastic type and colour with magnets and optical sensors Label removal, washing, shredding and granulating Cleaning and drying PET flakes Melting, filtering and cutting plastic into pellets Spinning pellets into yarn and weaving it into fabric Coating and embossing the fabric Cutting, sewing and assembling the bag Load, abrasion, water and colour-rub tests Packing, shipping and the final bag in a shop Why recycled PET? Plastic bottles made from PET can be cleaned, melted and spun into polyester Fibre, which is used in fabrics and bags. Recycling gives used bottles a second life instead of leaving them as waste.
