New Product Line Made From Recycled Plastic Bottles
DODGEVILLE, Wis., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Looking for a lesson in recycling? Look no further than the new line of Eco-friendly backpacks, messenger bags and lunch boxes from Lands' End. Each item in the new Eco-friendly collection is made of recycled fabric created from discarded plastic bottles. Lands' End is introducing the new line to kids and college students alike just in time for the start of the new school year.
"At Lands' End, we always look for ways to develop new and innovative products that our customers will value and appreciate," said Shannon Lelouch, director of product development at Lands' End. "The new Eco-friendly collection offers a perfect combination of green innovation, performance and functionality. It's a great green choice for any age."
The new Eco-friendly line offers green credibility without sacrificing performance and function. The 600-denier ripstop polyester is the toughest fabric used in Lands' End packs and will hold up to all the rigors of a long school year, plus day hikes and camping. Through an innovative process, plastic bottles are recycled into "threads" and woven into a polyester fabric. A crosshatch, ripstop weave reinforces the fabric's strength and makes products in the Eco-friendly line exceptionally durable.
