Composition & Materials
The Bershka Faded Zip-Up Hoodie is made with a thoughtful blend of materials, balancing comfort with sustainability. Here's a breakdown of its composition:
A key highlight is that the hoodie contains at least 20-25% certified recycled materials, ensuring that it is a more eco-friendly option compared to many traditional garments. The Outer Shell includes RCS Certified Recycled Polyester (25%) and RCS Certified Recycled Cotton (20%), both helping reduce waste from plastic and textile products. RCS Certified materials are verified by Intertek, which tracks the recycled content from its source to the final product.
RCS Certified Recycled Polyester: This is mainly made from recycled PET plastic waste, such as discarded plastic bottles, helping reduce the reliance on virgin polyester. It’s certified by the Recycled Content Standard (RCS).
RCS Certified Recycled Cotton: Made from textile waste, this recycled cotton helps reduce the consumption of raw cotton and minimizes textile waste. Like polyester, it’s also RCS-certified.
This hoodie emphasizes sustainability, without compromising on style or comfort. Recycled cotton and polyester contribute to a softer, breathable, and environmentally conscious fabric blend.
