However, it would be faster development, thinks Modint. Textiles selects already five pioneers. Our raw materials are running out and that is why change is necessary. That takes Peter Koppert, manager sustainability and innovation in business organization Modint. Through Agro Chemicals &amp; let him know that we need to look at other materials to work with in the fashion industry. But that is not as easy as said, because there are few suppliers of biopolymers producing for the fashion industry.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, &#8220;the majority of the clothing producers working on the next collection. Lots of space to launch long innovation processes is not. There must be leaders who take the space for fiber innovations. &#8220;At the moment there is less than one percent by using bio-based materials. In the fashion industry Modint trying to help screws up this rate, &#8220;Soon we will sit down with two large (international) fashion brands and two suppliers of biopolymers to the table to see what is possible.&#8221; Some brands know how to make use of bio-based materials:<\/p>\n<h3>G-Star<\/h3>\n<p>Our own G-Star for the collection of Raw for the Oceans used PET bottles. In collaboration with singer Pharell Williams, the brand has designed a collection which substances made for 33 percent of bottles that are found on the beach in Indonesia. Of the plastic is made that a wire is wrapped with cotton. G-Star is to increase the percentage of plastic that is used with every collection.<\/p>\n<h3>H &amp; M<\/h3>\n<p>Also, H &amp; M came out with a clothing line that is made \u200b\u200bfrom natural and recycled materials. For this, both old garments and plastic parts used or new materials such as hemp and organic silk. The old garments H &amp; M gets its own customers, who can namely their old clothes to hand in exchange for a voucher.<\/p>\n<h3>Kuyichi<\/h3>\n<p>Dutch clothing Kuyichi was founded in 2001 and is environmentally friendly clothing. It is the first brand with an organic cotton trousers collection and also makes clothing from hemp, recycled bottles and recycled cotton.<\/p>\n<h3>Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology<\/h3>\n<p>Maybe not a brand but we could not let it out. The Institute of Bioengineering and Nanotechnology is because in March this year found out how to make sugar from you. Adipic Adipic acid is used for making nylon. So it would just be that in the future, our clothing is made from sugar. So<\/p>\n<h3>QMilk<\/h3>\n<p>QMilk knows of the protein casein in milk is to use a substance. According to CEO Anke Domaske the fabric feels like silk and has an antibacterial effect, so it can be used well in (sports) clothing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The fashion industry is experimenting increasingly with &#8216;bio-based&#8217; material.
