Loop Industries, a company that recycles polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics and polyester fiber into recycled PET resin and polyester fiber, has partnered with Swiss sportswear company On to debut the "Cloudeasy Cyclon," a shoe made from upcycled colored textile waste that would've been incinerated.
The Cloudeasy Cyclon is constructed with an upper layer of yarn created from Loop's 100% recycled polyester fiber, using its Infinite Loop fiber-to-fiber recycling technology at Loop’s depolymerization facility in Terrebonne, Quebec. The companies claim the shoe can potentially be recycled endlessly and significantly decreases carbon emissions by up to 79%.
