BIOTECHNOLOGY
(OUR NEXT HORIZON)
Biotechnology can play a significant role in the creation of high-performance, sustainable clothing, harnessing biological processes to manufacture innovative textiles.
Techniques such as biofabrication employ cells and biologically sourced materials to produce textiles with unique performance characteristics, exemplified by lab-grown leather. Bio-based materials like Polylactic acid (PLA), made by fermenting plant-derived sugars, provide biodegradable textile options. Enzyme technology replaces harmful chemicals in textile manufacturing, reducing pollution and energy consumption. Biopolymers, derived from living organisms, offer a range of fabric properties and are often biodegradable. Genetic engineering further broadens the horizons, allowing for the production of materials like spider silk through modified bacteria, promising strength and elasticity for high-performance clothing. Lastly, microbial dyeing uses bacteria and fungi to create sustainable dyes, eliminating the need for high temperatures or toxic substances.
In essence, biotechnology can foster an avenue towards clothing production that marries sustainability with advanced performance.
