SUSTAINABILITY IN TEXTILES

Textiles and apparel are fundamental to human existence, yet the industry has exhibited a long history of unsustainable practices. Currently, the textile and apparel industry contributes to 10% of our annual carbon footprint and consumes about 93 billion cubic meters of water a year.

As textiles are such a fundamental part of our every day lives, the industry is limited in how quickly it can pivot. These changes will need to take place as a result of focused and consistent efforts from all members of the textile industry. At Fibonix we believe that these changes can be made in large part through the realization of critical technologies to improve product functionality, reduce material waste, and improve supply chain efficiency. In this way, it is our mission to help support companies with these goals in mind through our premeir design and research efforts.
