Bio-based filament yarns made from sustainably harvested softwoods (FSC-certified) add softness, quick-dry, and easy-care properties to knits. Produced from wood pulp and acetyl chemicals, the cellulosic fiber is extruded into continuous yarn.
RESOURCES
Eastman has invested $2 billion into building recycling facilities around the world. The Eastman website offers information on recycling and manufacturing processes, educating its potential customers and other people who are interested.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
The manufacturing process uses approximately a ton and a half of recycled glass a week, with glass salvaged from local window and solar panel manufacturers. Fireclay’s CRT glass tile gives new life to difficult-to-recycle CRT e-waste. Fireclay Tile purchases carbon offsets for its manufacturing emissions.
HUMAN HEALTH
In all programs at Eastman, they are committed to safety with an occupational health and safety program led by the company’s global health, safety, and environment organization. For employees, Eastman also offered resource groups and health care plans for all team members.
