Kreislaufwirtschaft

PYUA has stood for sustainable outdoor clothing since it was founded 12 years ago. This is also the case with the "Dull" insulation jacket, which is not only light, warm and packable, but is also made from 100% recycled polyester. This applies to both the filling and the fabric. As the jacket can therefore be completely recycled again, it is a product made for the circular economy.

The circular economy has been a major trend in recent years and is sometimes referred to as sustainability 2.0. At first glance, the concept appears to be more technical and more focused on one area. And anyway, most of us have been learning about waste separation and recycling from an early age, especially in Germany, the realm of the can and bottle deposit.

Water repellent. Warming. And packable. But are the synthetic alternatives to down also sustainable? A search for clues in the latest developments from Primaloft, Polartec and Thinsulate.
