Simplifyber said that what the company produces is "future clothes". These clothes and uppers made by injecting cellulose liquid into the mold are not only as soft as cotton fabric, without any traces of cutting, sewing or weaving, but also completely biodegradable. "Our patented 100% biodegradable material formula and sustainable additional production system will change the global clothing and footwear industry."
Simplifyber adopts 100% pure natural cellulose formula, which is composed of wood pulp, other plant-based materials and non-toxic additives. Therefore, the final product can be biodegradable and returned to nature, and can also be recycled into paper or clothing.
Maria intscher owlang, co-founder and CEO of simplifyber, said: "additional manufacturing (such as 3D printing) Nearly subverted and reshaped all industries, but not the fashion field. I started looking for like-minded people, and we found a way to make clothes using soft plant fibers. We started with the study of liquid cellulose in the laboratory, and then poured it on a specially designed mold and dried it. This method completely eliminates the waste of fabric and can also achieve on-demand production without inventory. "
Maria intscher owlang has more than 20 years of experience in the fashion industry. She has worked as a fashion designer and director in brands / companies such as Vera Wang, Calvin Klein, Alexander McQueen, Dirk bikkembergs and edun.
Laurie menoud, partner of one ventures, said: "With its integrated garment manufacturing process, simplifyber is expected to surpass polyester in economic benefits and become an economically and environmentally feasible solution. We look forward to working with the team to promote this solution to a larger scale. We believe that simplifyber can become the clothing of the future: they are not only beautifully designed, but also have low carbon footprint and appropriate prices. These are significant differences from other sustainable clothing brands 。”
By producing everyday clothes such as T-shirts, simplifyber aims to replace the $25 billion woven and knitted market. In addition, the company has cooperated with Hewlett Packard (HP) to carry out a pilot project to produce molded upper with a customized formula derived from natural fibers.
