The Fashion industry is one of the most polluting activities, mostly during raw material production and processing, with a particular concern on the management of plastics and their impact on the environment. One of the factors having a significant environmental impact is the high demand for clothing, which increases energy consumption and generates waste.
A possible greener alternative material for synthetic fibres is biodegradable biomaterials. These biomaterials are made from natural biopolymers and are biodegradable by themselves.
It can help reduce the waste problem due to the ability to biodegradation in specific atmospheric conditions in a relatively short period of time, reducing the environmental footprint.
