Innovation for our Future : Fabric from Greenhouse gas
Creating Magic from Air
Textile production is the world’s second most polluting industry after the oil industry. Conventional polyester is derived from petroleum in a process that emits huge amounts of greenhouse gases. Fashion industry contributes to almost 10% of the global carbon emissions and according to United Nation Climate Change.
Countries like China and India who majorly rely on coal power could further increase the carbon footprint.
But thanks to a company Fairbrics which has innovating technology converting greenhouse gas into sustainable polyester. CO2 captured at source reacts with catalyst and solvent to generate chemicals which are polymerized to create polyester pellets which are then spun into yarn and finally into fabric.
Kudos to the team of Fairbrics for this Innovative solution.
