A thing of true beauty is a joy forever
The beauty of a product doesn’t just come from its looks, it also comes from within.
Our partners give consumers a responsible choice of products which tell the powerful story of the journey from waste to wear.

A Journey from Waste to Wear: The Process
Fishing nets recovered by Healthy Seas enter the ECONYL® regeneration system, the innovative process by Aquafil that allows the transformation of nylon waste such as fishing nets and other discarded materials into first grade nylon. The regenerated nylon yarn has the same quality as virgin nylon from fossil raw material, it is infinitely recyclable and can unleash infinite possibilities for interior and fashion designers, creators and consumers.
Marine Protection
Fishing nets are collected in cooperation with volunteer
divers and fishermen.

ECONYL® Regeneration
Aquafil regenerates the waste fishing nets, along with
other nylon waste, into ECONYL® yarn.

Our partners use regenerated nylon to create sportswear, swimwear, socks, carpets and more.
