Recycled Nylon

Although PATAGONIA has been using recycled polyester in the garments for 20 years, for some reason locked deep in polymer chemistry, nylon is more difficult to recycle than polyester. After years of research, development, and testing, PATAGONIA is finally finding some recycled nylon fibers that are suitable for apparel. Some of the recycled nylon PATAGONIA use comes from post-industrial waste fiber, yarn collected from a spinning factory, and waste from the weaving mills that can be processed into reusable nylon fiber. PATAGONIA is diligently searching for a success story with recycled nylon. The challenge lies ahead of us, and PATAGONIA committed to discovering the best methods to recycle nylon fiber, but it appears this evolution will take many years.
