Eco Ties are school ties made with recycled polyester yarn. Each Eco Tie saves an average of two plastic bottles from entering our oceans and landfills. The standard way of making school ties is with non-recycled polyester yarn, which comes from crude oil. Eco Ties are made on solar-powered looms in our Lancashire mill, take just 3-4 weeks. Because of our price match promise you can move to Eco Ties for the same price or less than what you pay for your current non-recycled ties.
Not only do Eco Ties reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, but they are also much more resource-efficient. Eco Ties, use 94% less water, 60% less energy, and emit 32% less CO2 than the production of non-recycled yarn. Your school ties will be handmade in England offering superior quality compared to most competitors who make them in China.
Our family-run mill, now in its fourth generation of weavers, takes just 3-4 weeks to produce your school uniform ties, less than half the time it takes in China. Not only are we passionate about quality, but we also support UK jobs.
