The crux of the new trend lies in sustainability and so follows the recyclable products. Polyester is of immense
importance as a fibre when it comes to textile and garment, but the type used (Virgin PET) is not an eco-friendly one. Polyester
filament extracted from the recycled PET bottles can cater to the unmet need of an eco-friendly substitute to the virgin polyester.
A comparative study has been made to analyse whether recycled PET can perform the functionality of virgin PET. The physical
properties of both stand out to be the same, signalling the use of recycled PET filament. Recycled PET filament finds it limitation
in non-uniform dyeing but the same can be solved through chemical extraction.
