Bus Eireann has transformed 150,000 recycled plastic bottles into uniforms for its drivers.

The polyester used in the uniforms is made from ethically sourced and recycled materials, and each one prevents 20 plastic bottles going to landfill.

It's all part of Repak's Team Green campaign which celebrates innovative organisational recycling practices.

CEO of Repak Seamus Clancy said, "“the use of plastic bottles in Bus Éireann’s driver uniforms is a fantastic example of what can be done when we 're-imagine' our relationship with plastic to create a more circular future.

"Using recycled materials to create new uniforms is a great incentive to reimagine how we deal with packaging and we hope that this effort inspires others to follow suit."
