Together for a Clean Ocean

Sustainability and environmental protection are firmly anchored in Georg Otto Friedrich's corporate values. In addition to supporting local reforestation projects, they have been successfully developing and processing yarn from recycled post-consumer PET for a long time. Now they are once again sending out a strong signal for the environment and against marine litter.
Together with the SEAQUAL® Initiative, which is committed to cleaning the oceans from marine debris, GOF has developed another highly sustainable textile: DecoTex Blue. It consists of more than 60% SEAQUAL® polyester fibers, which are made from recycled marine plastic.
Did you know that approx. 12 million tons of waste dumped in our oceans every year?
The SEAQUAL® initiative aims to clean the Mediterranean Sea of plastic waste and recycle the plastic into new, environmentally friendly polyester fibers.
Choose DecoTex Blue and take care of a cleaner sea and beaches by reducing marine litter.
