Sharon Lee partners with Repreve©
Published - 7th November, 2022
Sharon Lee are proud to have partnered with REPREVE® to produce an initial range of 2 styles of baseball cap that truly help us all to do more with less.Taking 2 post consumer waste plastic bottles and turning them into fabric, and showing everyone in the supply chain the environmental benefits of these caps, with no hassle, no complex documentation, and no fuss, is now available.
It is an honour for Sharon Lee to work with REPREVE® and to take REPREVE®’s recycled and fully traceable yarn into the promotional, workwear, and merchandising sectors, allowing our great customers and in turn the biggest brands in the world, the chance to be associated with such a great recycling movement.
In both the fully covered and trucker style caps, REPREVE® have calculated and certified that approximately 2 bottles have been recycled in the making of the 100% recycled fabric used. We felt it important to tell the world about the 2 recycled bottles making a cap, by showing this on the peak sticker that sits on every one of the stock products that Sharon Lee are holding.
Furthermore we felt it important to shout about the great process and amazing work that REPREVE® are performing by turning so many plastic bottles into yarn, and in our case we are turning baseball caps, so we added a QR code to this peak sticker.
This QR code takes the audience straight through to the REPREVE® website www.REPREVE.com, so everyone can share in the great story that our baseball cap has.
Whether you are showing this to the marketing director of a global brand, whether the brand director wants to show its customers, or whether the end wearer of the product wants to know the story, the peak sticker provides the platform….. to display how environmentally conscious this product is. The peak sticker provides an easy platform to transfer all of the environmental benefits down the entire supply chain with minimum documentation, minimum reading time, and minimum hassle for everyone.
The number of bottles that REPREVE® recycle goes up by approximately 4,300 per minute.
Both the C6742 fully covered 6 panel cap and the C6743 trucker style cap are available from Sharon Lee’s stock. The initial colours of both styles come in Black, Navy, Red and Grey.
If you want to show your customers the product and the ways that we can brand the caps, you can use Sharon Lee’s plain label, end user friendly, catalogue site called SearchCaps. Please feel free to send both of the links to your customers:
