The Tangle Process
The process:
1) Tangle start by collecting end of life fishing nets from a range of ports, net makers, and plastics collection partners globally (to prevent them being disposed overboard at sea which is often most convenient for lazy fisherman).
2) They recycle these nets through a process of deconstruction, sorting and fractioning into different types of plastics and colours. The material is then shredded, washed, separated and dried.
3) Lastly, we compound and extrude it into 100% recycled green pellets.For this particular product the pellets are extruded and spun into our proprietary Tangle yarn.
From there we create the double-core 16-braid-count Tangle dog lead you see today.
