By understanding these options, brands can select fibers that best suit their product goals.

In recent years, there has been growing concern over the environmental impact of PET bottles, particularly their contribution to plastic pollution in our oceans. As we strive for sustainable solutions, one promising avenue is the recycling of PET bottles into yarn. This innovative approach not only reduces waste but also offers opportunities for creating new products with a lower environmental footprint. In this discussion, we delve into the process of PET bottle recycling and explore its potential to transform the way we perceive and utilize plastic materials."

Bamboo Charcoal fiber is a natural and environmentally friendly recycled fiber derived from bamboo. Bamboo, known for its rapid growth and minimal need for management, can be easily decomposed by natural organisms. Through a high-temperature firing process, bamboo is transformed into bamboo charcoal, which is then finely ground and added to the fiber using precision techniques. Bamboo Charcoal Yarn boasts a rich mineral content and offers far-infrared rays, antibacterial properties, deodorization, anti-UV protection, excellent breathability, and wearing comfort. Its exceptional deodorizing function has earned it the moniker "breathed fiber."

Graduated compression socks are made with high-quality knitting machines and elastic yarns like nylon, cotton, and merino wool. Their scientifically designed pressure gradually decreases from ankle to thigh, improving blood flow and helping prevent swelling, varicose veins, and DVT.

Why does compression stockings need a quality control mechanism before production? Because there will be a lot of expenses and time costs when developing new products. If there are no appropriate quality control measures before mass production for consumer use, the product is likely to appear in abnormal conditions. In particular, socks that are customized and designed for different sports have different functions and pressures when used on different parts of the foot.

Medical compression stockings, also known as compression hosiery or pressure stockings, have a long history dating back to ancient civilizations.
