PET-Recycling

Recycle, reduce & reuse

Our bags are made of materials that consist of up to 100% recycled PET bottles. Plastic waste can therefore be reused, conserving our natural resources.

Sound incredible? Just watch the video and discover how a satch product evolves from used PET bottles.

What's inside

Since 2011 we have put over 110 million used PET bottles (0.5 l) to new use. Would you like to know how many recycled PET bottles are in your satch product? Simply click through our slider and find out!

Saving resources

Making our fabrics from recycled PET materials saves significantly more resources compared to making polyester fabrics derived from crude oil. PET recycling is twice as good: Plastic waste finds a new use and fossil fuels are saved.

bluesign®️ system partner

A good conscience is paradise

As a bluesign®️ sytem partner, we pay attention to an envirnomentally friendly production starting with the beginning of our value creation. Many of our fabric and material producers as well as their suppliers of raw materials and chemicals are also bluesign®️ system partners. Together we want to keep the impact on people and nature as low as possible when we produce our products.

bluesign®️ defines strict rules for production. In particular, dying our fabrics in particular requires that we pay special attention to only using very specific chemicals. In addition, bluesign®️ checks that the chemicals used are completely filtered out so that they cannot get into the environment unregulated.

ECONYL®

Endless Possibilities

White sand, turquoise water, bright sunshine - a dream for anyone who loves the sea. It's not for nothing that we have dedicated our own satch design to the incomparable Bondi Beach. And we go one step further: Our BONDI BEACH REVIVAL EDITION is made of ECONYL® regenerated nylon. What's special about it: Old fishing nets are part of the nylon, which is made from 100% waste.

PFC-free impregnation

For the sake of the environment

Our products are REACH-compliant and therefore chemically harmless. The water-repellent textile treatment for all our products is 100% PFC-free since 2019, so you can get to your destination dry in the rain.

Why did we choose on a PFC-free textile treatment? So-called PFC chemicals are suspected of being carcinogenic and are not biodegradable. They have been found in water, soil and air. For us, this is a reason to eliminate them from our production process and to take another successful step towards protecting the environment.

Responsible corporate management has been a top priority for us since our founding in 2010. For our commitment, we were awarded the German Sustainability Prize in 2016. However, that is no reason to stop there and not become better yet! Go for the good feeling of satch. IT'S UP TO YOU
