Sustainability is becoming a key focus across all industries, and the world of sportswear is no exception.
As teams and clubs look for ways to reduce their environmental impact, the demand for sustainable high-quality, eco-friendly teamwear has never been greater. At TAG Sportswear, we are committed to providing sustainable solutions without compromising on performance, durability, or style.
The Rise of Recycled Fabric in Teamwear
Recycled fabrics are transforming the sportswear industry, offering a responsible alternative to traditional materials. By repurposing plastic waste into high-performance fabrics, teams can enjoy breathable, moisture-wicking, and durable kits while contributing to a greener planet.
At TAG, we supply a range of eco-friendly teamwear options, including jerseys, shorts, and training wear made from recycled polyester. These materials maintain the same high-performance qualities as conventional fabrics while significantly reducing the environmental footprint of sports apparel.
Burton Albion: A Case Study in Teamwear Sustainability
One club leading the way in sustainability is Burton Albion, a team that has worked with TAG Sportswear since 1994, the longest supply deal in UK football. The League One side has embraced sustainable teamwear by partnering with TAG Sportswear to introduce kits made from recycled materials.
By choosing sustainable sportswear, Burton Albion is demonstrating its commitment to environmental responsibility while maintaining the high-performance standards. Their move to eco-friendly kits, from 2022, sets an example for clubs at all levels, showing that sustainability and top-tier performance can go hand in hand.
Why Sustainable Teamwear Matters
- Reduces Plastic Waste – Millions of plastic bottles are repurposed into high-quality fabric rather than ending up in landfills or oceans.
- Lower Carbon Footprint – The production of recycled polyester requires less energy and resources than virgin polyester.
- Maintains Performance – Advanced recycling techniques ensure that sustainable teamwear is just as breathable, durable, and lightweight as traditional options.
- Enhances Brand Reputation – Clubs and organisations showcasing eco-friendly initiatives appeal to environmentally-conscious players, fans, and sponsors.
At TAG Sportswear, we believe that every team, from grassroots to professional level, can make a difference. Our range of recycled teamwear is designed for durability, performance, and environmental responsibility.
