HOW IT’S MADE
HOW IT’S MADE
STEP 1
EverTru recycles discarded, ocean-bound plastic bottles and fishing nets from our beaches and waterways
STEP 2
Materials are sorted, washed, and shredded into flakes
STEP 3
These flakes are melted into pellets
STEP 4
The pellets are then spun into yarns
STEP 5
The yarns are woven and printed with patterns to create Oceantex Fabric
STEP 6
Finally, Oceantex Fabric is sewn to create UV resistant outdoor cushions
EverTru Oceantex™ Fabrics broad assortment of sustainable materials are responsibly made and composed of up to 100% recycled materials, including reclaimed ocean plastics and fishing nets.
Oceantex fabrics proudly feature
Ocean Cycle Certification.
OCEANTEX WOVEN OLEFIN
Our Oceantex™ Woven Collection is produced from discarded ocean-bound fishing nets collected in coastal communities most at risk for ocean pollution. Fishing nets are 4 times more harmful to our oceans than any other form of plastic pollution. One 100-pound fishing net makes 75 yards of Oceantex Olefin.
OCEANTEX PRINTED POLYESTER

The result is sustainable, high-quality performance textiles that are fully customizable. Each yard of Oceantex fabric is made up of roughly 35 plastic bottles.
Our sustainability commitment includes making other recycled and natural materials easily accessible.
