BekaertDeslee supports ocean cleaning. They are collaborating with SEAQUAL INITITIATIVE to retrieve marine litter from our oceans and transform it into Upcycled Marine Plastic which is made into SEAQUAL® YARN and then used to produce high quality BekaertDeslee mattresses and mattress covers.

Every year, 8 million tons of waste ends up in our oceans. 75% lies underneath the ocean’s surface, forming an immediate threat to marine life. Governments, businesses and consumers share the responsibility to preserve the oceans for future generations. We are proud to announce that BekaertDeslee, the global market leader in the development and production of mattress textiles, is taking part in a massive ocean clean-up initiative.

SEAQUAL INITIATIVE helps remove plastic from our oceans, rivers and estuaries with the collaboration of fishermen and beach clean-up programs around the world. Every material, including aluminum, metal, glass or plastic, goes to its own unique recycling chain and textile technology enables SEAQUAL INITIATIVE approved facilities to take the marine plastic and turn it into Upcycled Marine Plastic which is made into SEAQUAL® YARN and used to produce BekaertDeslee’s high quality mattress textiles and mattress covers.

BekaertDeslee is on a mission. They feel a strong sense of responsibility to help save our beautiful blue planet for future generations and encourage their employees and their families around the globe to help create awareness and to become part of SEAQUAL INITIATIVE. BekaertDeslee’s attractive range of beautiful woven and knitted fabrics containing SEAQUAL® YARN make comfortable mattresses and pillows for a good night’s sleep and a clean conscience.
