Polyester Recycling Initiatives Challenge Sublimation’s Sustainability Narrative
While sublimation printing is often praised for its water‑free process and low waste, the reliance on polyester substrates has raised concerns about microfiber pollution and recyclability. New polyester recycling initiatives, such as chemical depolymerization, aim to create closed‑loop systems where used polyester garments are broken down into raw materials for new polyester fibers. However, sublimation […]
