Description
Recycled PA6 (nylon 6) pellets made from end-of-life fishing nets for Bright yarn production. This is a pellet grade, not finished yarn.
Ocean Material helps assess the Bright grade against your yarn requirements and coordinates qualification and sourcing with the partner facility. Technical data sheets, detailed specifications and supporting documentation are available on request.
Specifications
Material: recycled PA6 (nylon 6).
Product form: Pellets.
Yarn-grade version: Bright.
No MFI is stated for this yarn grade. Confirm the technical parameters and test conditions against the TDS for the Bright version.
Applications
Pellet feedstock for Bright nylon 6 yarn production. Share your intended yarn construction, linear density, appearance requirements and end use so we can coordinate qualification of this grade with the partner facility.
Origin
Countries of origin: China, Taiwan. The PA6 feedstock comes from end-of-life fishing nets. These nets have been used in fishing, reached the end of their useful life, and are collected for recycling. This is post-consumer feedstock rather than manufacturing scrap; it does not imply that the material consists of lost ghost gear recovered from the ocean.
Sustainability & Impact
Using recovered fishing nets as a recycled PA6 feedstock supports material recovery after the gear's service life. The environmental performance of a specific grade depends on its production and supply chain; a general origin description is not a quantified impact claim.
Quality & Traceability
Material qualification should use the TDS and the origin, quality and traceability information relevant to the selected grade and partner facility. Ocean Material helps coordinate that review. Certification scope and available documentation must be checked for the specific grade; they are not automatically identical across these products.
Source Certification: Source Certified. Supporting origin documentation is reviewed for the selected material and supply.
Carbon Footprint & LCA
Life cycle assessments (LCAs) are available for selected materials and production sites within our partner network. Availability and scope vary by material grade, production location and supply chain.
Looking to assess the carbon footprint of your material choice? Tell us about your application, performance requirements and sourcing needs. We will review the available environmental data with our partners and help identify suitable material options for your project.

FAQ
What are end-of-life fishing nets?
Fishing nets that have reached the end of their useful working life and are collected for recycling. They are not automatically lost or abandoned ghost gear.
What does post-consumer mean here?
The nets were used in fishing before recovery. This describes the feedstock history, not a guarantee that every component of the final material is recycled.
Which grade is this?
Bright pellet feedstock, not finished yarn
Which applications can be considered?
Pellet feedstock for Bright nylon 6 yarn production. Share your intended yarn construction, linear density, appearance requirements and end use so we can coordinate qualification of this grade with the partner facility.
What colour is supplied?
Natural. Confirm the required appearance through sample evaluation.
How can I request samples and technical documents?
Technical data sheets, detailed specifications and supporting documentation are available on request. Use the material inquiry button with your application, specification, quantity and delivery destination. Sampling conditions are set out in Ordering & Lead Time.
