The Men's Suits and slacks are to be sold as separates under Sears' Covington Perfect brand, manufactured by Israeli firm Bagir Group Ltd. and are expected to hit the racks in U.S. stores in May. It takes about 25 2-liter polyethylene terephthalate bottles to produce enough polyester fiber to make a suit.
 

N.I. Teijin Shoji Inc. of New York announced the firms' plans on Tuesday. N.I. Teijin Shoji is a part of the high tech textile company that belongs to Japan's Teijin Group, a multinational corporation embracing 160 firms with a long history in the chemical industry.

Established in 1918, Teijin was the first company in Japan to produce rayon yarn. The company started its polyester fibers business in 1958 and has since positioned itself as a leading manufacturer of synthetic fibers.

Teijin's Eco-A-Wear textiles are being marketed as an environmentally friendly fabric for use in making suits and other apparel that appeal to business professionals who are interested in a "new generation of green fashion."

The manufacturing process does not rely on petroleum, says the company. It provides the simplified diagram below to illustrate how the recycled polyester fiber Teijin calls Ecopet is made and then spun with wool to create the Eco-A-Wear fabric.
