Instead, PET and other sources of polyester are used to make textiles, storage boxes, kitchen fronts and even lamps. Originally, all polyester was made from oil-based raw materials which are not renewable but we are switching to only using recycled polyester. The good thing is that polyester can be recycled over and over, without negatively affecting the quality of our products.

At IKEA, we demand that all recycled polyester used in IKEA products shall come from recyclers that are compliant with the Global Recycled Standard and traceability is secured to the IKEA product through requirements toward the IKEA Suppliers. The term "Retail" price refers to the manufacturer's or supplier's suggested retail price for an item. The initially displayed Retail price is specific to a product with the selected dimensions and default options/features. Please note that the Retail price for the selected product will be provided upon specifying its width, height, features and options.

Question & Answer

We are accelerating this movement for polyester in our range and aim to replace all virgin polyester in our textile products with recycled. In 2020, IKEA replaced 79% of the virgin polyester used in IKEA textile products with recycled polyester. In volume, this means we converted 130,000 metric tonnes of recycled polyester, and saved 200,000 tonnes of virign polyester.

One Room Challenge Week Five DIY Cordless Fabric Shades: One Room Challenge Week Five

Once you have sewn three seams, you can trim the excess fabric, and snip diagonally across the two bottom corners (being careful not to cut any of the stitching.) This will give you a nice crisp finish when you eventually turn it right side out. Now that you have those calculations worked out, and while your shade is still turned inside out, you can add pins on either edge of your lining to mark where your magnets are going to be sewn in. Please note that the Retail price may not reflect the prevailing market price or the regular retail price. It is common for products to be sold at lower prices than the Retail price due to various factors, including promotional events, discounts, market competition, or supplier agreements.Then machine stitch along the top of the tube tape/ribbon all the way across your shade. Smooth the fabric as you go, and take your time! IKEA is committed to end the dependency on virgin fossil materials and only use renewable or recycled materials by 2030. Alright. So now you want to turn your blind the right side out, and give it a good iron around the seams. Now cut down your weight bar (I used a piece of pine casing) slightly smaller than the width of your blind, and insert it into the bottom of the shade. At this point I wanted to give my Mum a special mention, as she came up with the genius idea of using magnets to make these cordless. She also gave me a lot of advice and help along the way via FaceTime—thanks Mum! Next, grab your roman shade tube tape or your wide ribbon, and cut two pieces to fit the width in between the magnets, with a little extra for hemming. If you are using tube tape, you can hem both ends as there are slits to insert the dowel. If you are using ribbon, fold and iron it in half width ways and hem one end, leaving an end open so that you can insert the dowel.
