Shri Ranga Polymers of Karur in Tiruchirapalli district, Tamilnadu, takes 15 lakhs of single use discarded plastic bottles a day from different part of the state to produce fabric. It takes 6 to 9 bottles to make a jacket like the one worn by the prime minister in parliament. The process of making the fabric is for washing, drying and crushing the bottles, and passing the chips through a machine to form the polyester fibre that is then knitted into polyester fabric. As an exporter Karur is one of the largest foreign exchange earning cities in the country, says Mr. K. Sankar of Shree Ranga Polymers.
