Yulitex: Pioneering Sustainable Honeycomb Blinds
Yulitex is a leading manufacturer dedicated to revolutionizing the honeycomb blinds industry with a strong commitment to sustainability. We're not just about creating high - quality products; we're about making a positive impact on the environment through our innovative recycling initiatives.
Our Sustainable Approach
Recycling for a Greener Future
Our core objective is to produce honeycomb blinds using recycled materials, specifically focusing on the use of recycled yarn. We believe that by incorporating recycled materials into our products, we can significantly reduce the environmental impact associated with traditional manufacturing processes.
Awareness and Community Engagement
In addition to our production efforts, we're actively involved in various projects aimed at raising awareness about recycling and its benefits. We strive to engage our employees, local communities, and even our customers in the recycling movement, believing that collective action is key to achieving a sustainable future.
GRS (Global Recycle Standard) Certification
As a testament to our commitment to sustainability, Yulitex holds the prestigious GRS (Global Recycle Standard) certification. This international voluntary standard not only verifies the recycled content in our final honeycomb blind products but also ensures that the entire supply chain adheres to strict social, environmental, and chemical requirements.
The GRS certification process encompasses every stage of production, from the sourcing of recycled raw materials to the final manufacturing and distribution of our honeycomb blinds. This means that for our products to be certified, we must meet specific criteria related to recycled material traceability, environmental management, and ethical practices at each step of the supply chain.
This certification is of utmost importance to us. It validates Yulitex's genuine dedication to environmental protection and ethical manufacturing. Every honeycomb blind we produce with recycled materials, certified under the GRS, contributes to reducing waste in landfills and conserving valuable resources. Our GRS certificate allows you to verify our commitment and the authenticity of our sustainable products.
RCS (Recycled Claim Standard) certification
As a company, we possess an RCS (Recycled Claim Standard) certificate. This is an international voluntary standard that verifies the recycled fibre content of the final product.
The RCS programme includes certification of the entire supply chain. Thus, for a fabric to be sold as certified, certain criteria must be met at each stage of sourcing, processing and marketing the recycled raw material.
This is an extremely important certification for us, as it confirms Miranda Textiles’ real commitment to environment protection, by levelling and converting PET waste into recycled yarn. Every metre of recycled fabrics and knits contributes to reducing the amount of waste on our planet.
Environmental Benefits of Our Recycling Process
The production of recycled materials for our honeycomb blinds brings about numerous environmental benefits. For example, the production of 1 Ton of recycled material used in our blinds contributes to:
- Dust emission reduction by 70 kilograms
- Water savings of 55000 litres
- Reduction of water vapor by 4500 kg/m³
- SO₂ emission reduction by 50 kilograms
- Fuel consumption reduction by 1600 litres
Production Process of Our Sustainable Honeycomb Blinds
Collection and Sorting of Waste
We start by collecting suitable waste materials, such as PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles. These bottles are carefully sorted to ensure that only high - quality and compatible plastics are selected for the recycling process. This step is crucial as it guarantees the integrity of the final recycled product.
Cleaning and Shredding
Once sorted, the PET bottles are thoroughly cleaned to remove any labels, adhesives, and micro - pollutants. After cleaning, they are shredded into small flakes using high - performance, abrasion - resistant knives. The resulting flakes are then further cleaned to eliminate any dust generated during the shredding process.
Regranulation
The shredded and cleaned flakes are then melted and reformed into granules through a regranulation process. This involves subjecting the flakes to high temperatures, typically between [X]°C and [X]°C. The resulting granules serve as the raw material for producing recycled yarn.
Yarn Production
The granules are then transformed into recycled yarn. This is achieved by stretching the granules into thin fibers in a spinning machine. The windings are designed in a way that allows for easy bleaching or dyeing, depending on the color requirements of our honeycomb blinds. After the finishing process, the yarn is ready to be used in the manufacturing of our honeycomb blinds.
Manufacturing of Honeycomb Blinds
Our honeycomb blinds are crafted using a precise weaving or extrusion process, depending on the design. The recycled yarn is incorporated into the structure of the blinds, creating a durable and energy - efficient product. The final manufacturing steps involve adding any necessary coatings or treatments to enhance the performance of the blinds, such as improving their light - blocking capabilities or increasing their resistance to moisture.
Performance and Quality of Our Honeycomb Blinds
Our recycled honeycomb blinds are not only environmentally friendly but also perform exceptionally well. We subject our products to rigorous testing, including tests for durability, light - filtering capabilities, heat insulation, and ease of operation. The results of these tests have shown that our recycled honeycomb blinds are on par with, if not superior to, traditional blinds in terms of performance.
When you choose Yulitex recycled honeycomb blinds, you're not only making an eco - friendly choice but also investing in a high - quality product that will meet all your window - covering needs. If you have any questions about our recycled honeycomb blinds or our recycling process, please don't hesitate to contact us. Let's work together to protect the environment, one blind at a time!
