Polyester Staple Fibre (PSF)
Badri Group Recycled Polyester staple fibre is a synthetic man-made fibre made from PET/Polyester waste and fibres post consumed PET bottles. Polyester staple fibre gives good resilience properties and is used to make premium Polyester waste and post consumed PET bottles. . It also used for spinning yarns and making geo-textiles.
Being fibres organic material, drips would be formed, but would not stick to the skin. Phosphorous based compound added in Polyester Staple Fibre when burnt do not cause skin allergy.
Since those PET bottles are practically Non bio-degradable, it was very difficult to dispose them.
First bottles arrived in a badri group, collected from trash, in bale form. This chemical helps in taking out glue from bottles and also cleaned them. The overall contaminations in bottles PET flakes should not be more than.
These bales are opened and manually sorted to take out contaminations like PVC, iron, stones etc. Once cleared these PET bottles are crushed to make 12-15 minutes flakes and are hot washed in chemical solution containing solution of Sodium Hydroxide.
New technology was developed polyester waste which helped in recycling these posts consumed PET bottles to make man-made fibres like Recycled Polyester Staple Fibre. These fibres are then used to make PET bottles. Phosphorous based FR compound added in Polyester Staple Fibre (PSF) when burnt do not cause skin allergy. Thus, badri group PET-FR is safe to handle and gives safe products.
PET recycling process
•PET bottles are sorted from other recyclable plastics such as PVC and HDPE, as the reclaimed material (PET flakes) is most valuable when it is most pured.
•These flakes are washed again to ensure the purest possible final product
•This yarn, the light-coloured flakes are bleached, while flakes from darker bottles are used
•flakes become the raw material for new products.
•yarn, the light-coloured flakes are bleached, while flakes from darker bottles are used
•the bales of recycled bottles are sorted manually or automatically on the basis of colour, and to remove any foreign material or non-PET lids and bases
•for yarn that will be dyed a dark colour; the flakes are melted in a vat and forced through spinnerets to produce fibres.
