Road To Renewal

recycled glove leather made of recycled car windshields

Using recycled car windshields as raw material and transforming them into leather material and closed cell foams.

For every piece of FILIE® material we create, we reduce the size of the landfill and bring valuable resources back into circulation.

HIGH PERFORMANCE MATERIAL FROM RECYCLED SOURCE

THE ROAD TO RENEWAL

We are using recycled material to replace virgin petroleum raw material.
Unlike other automobile parts, car windshields are often discarded instead of recycled. The separation process isn’t easy, and the value is undiscovered.

Step 1

Waste car windshields separation

Working with our recycling partners around the globe, we separate the two raw materials from car windshields, the PVB films and glass.

DISCOVER VALUE WHERE YOU CAN'T SEE

Using recycled car windshields as a raw material and transforming them into leather material and closed cell foams.

For every meter of FILIE® material we create, we reduce the landfill size and bring valuable resources back into circulation.

Step 2

PVB film refinement

After the separation, the recycled PVB films are cleaned up and shredded into flakes for further processing
