We transform discarded PET drinking water bottles into premium recycled polyester staple fibre (RPSF) — delivering sustainable, GRS-certified fibre solutions for the global textile industry.
Recycled Polyester Staple Fibre (RPSF) is a sustainable textile raw material produced by recycling post-consumer PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles — especially drinking water and beverage bottles — into high-quality staple fibre.
RPSF exhibits the same mechanical properties as virgin polyester — including tensile strength, elasticity, and durability — while dramatically reducing environmental impact. It is the cornerstone of the circular textile economy.
With global regulations like India's EPR framework and the EU's Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation mandating recycled content, RPSF has moved from niche to necessity.
RPSF generates 60% fewer CO₂ emissions and uses 59% less energy compared to virgin polyester production. Zero new petroleum extraction required.
RPSF matches virgin polyester in tensile strength, durability, and dyeability. It blends seamlessly with cotton, viscose, and wool for premium fabric production.
Recycled PET feedstock costs less than virgin PET resin. Lower energy consumption translates to competitive pricing without compromising quality.
GRS certified, EPR compliant, and meeting international textile standards. Trusted by brands and manufacturers across 50+ countries worldwide.
We manufacture every type of recycled polyester staple fibre to meet your exact spinning, weaving, or nonwoven requirements.
Standard recycled polyester staple fibre for spinning yarns, woven fabrics, and general textile applications.
Hollow-channel structure provides superior loft, bulk, and thermal insulation for pillows, cushions, and mattresses.
Treated with silicone for enhanced softness, smoothness, and anti-static properties. Ideal for premium home textiles.
Solution-dyed RPSF available in a wide range of colours. Eliminates the need for post-production dyeing, saving water and energy.
From fashion to automotive, recycled polyester staple fibre is the versatile raw material powering sustainable manufacturing worldwide.
RPSF is the foundational raw material for spun yarn production, enabling the creation of sustainable garments, fabrics, and fashion textiles without compromising on quality or feel.
The softness, resilience, and loft properties of RPSF make it the ideal filling and fabric material for home textile products that people use every day.
Automotive manufacturers increasingly use RPSF for interior components, balancing performance with sustainability targets and weight reduction goals.
RPSF's versatility extends to industrial applications where strength, filtration efficiency, and environmental compliance are critical requirements.
Every kilogram of GreenFibre RPSF diverts approximately 60 PET bottles from landfills and oceans. Our manufacturing process conserves water, reduces energy consumption, and slashes greenhouse gas emissions — all while producing fibre that performs identically to virgin polyester.
The global recycled polyester market is projected to reach USD 26.18 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 9.25%. India's EPR regulations and global brand commitments are accelerating this transition.
Our state-of-the-art facility transforms collected PET bottles into high-quality RPSF through a controlled, multi-stage recycling process.
PET bottles sourced from recycling networks, sorted by type and colour to ensure feedstock purity.
Bottles are thoroughly washed to remove labels, caps, adhesives, and contaminants using hot and cold wash systems.
Clean bottles are shredded into uniform PET flakes, the primary raw material for fibre extrusion.
PET flakes are melted, filtered, and extruded through spinnerets into continuous filaments with precise denier control.
Filaments are stretched, crimped, and cut into staple lengths (32–64mm), then baled for dispatch to textile mills worldwide.

Find answers to common questions about recycled polyester staple fibre, sourcing, and sustainability.
RPSF is a sustainable textile fibre produced by recycling post-consumer PET bottles — especially drinking water bottles — into staple-length polyester fibre. The process involves collecting, washing, shredding PET bottles into flakes, melting and extruding them into filaments, and cutting the filaments into short staple lengths (typically 32–64mm). RPSF generates approximately 60% fewer CO₂ emissions compared to virgin polyester production.
RPSF is widely used in yarn spinning for woven and knitted fabrics, nonwoven production (spunlace, needle-punch, thermo-bond), home furnishings (pillows, cushions, mattresses, carpets), automotive interiors (seat upholstery, sound insulation), and industrial applications (filters, geotextiles, ropes). It can be blended with cotton, viscose, and wool for enhanced fabric properties.
Recycled polyester fibre offers equivalent tensile strength, durability, and dyeability compared to virgin polyester. Environmentally, RPSF uses 59% less energy, reduces water consumption by 90%, and lowers CO₂ emissions by up to 60%. One kilogram of RPSF saves approximately 60 PET bottles from landfills and oceans. Cost-wise, RPSF is often more competitive than virgin polyester due to lower raw material costs.
The Global Recycled Standard (GRS) certification provides full supply chain traceability — from PET bottle collection through sorting, washing, extrusion, and final fibre production. For buyers, GRS certification ensures that the recycled content claim is verified and auditable, which is essential for meeting brand sustainability requirements and regulatory compliance.
We offer RPSF in denier range from 1.2D (fine spinning) to 15.0D (insulation/stuffing). Common cut lengths include 32mm, 38mm, 44mm, 51mm, and 64mm. We also provide both solid and hollow fibre variants, siliconized and non-siliconized options, and a wide range of solution-dyed colours. Custom specifications can be produced based on your spinning or end-use requirements.
Yes, we export GRS-certified RPSF to over 50 countries worldwide. We handle all export documentation, customs compliance, and international shipping logistics. Our fibre is packed in standard export-quality bales (300–350 kg) and containers can be loaded as per your volume requirements. We serve textile mills, nonwoven manufacturers, and automotive suppliers globally.
