Video that shows the journey from the nano-scale to the materialisation of bacterial cellulose into a textile-like material.
The TCC will share our resources, which, over time, will include case studies, academic publications, methodologies, toolkits, podcasts and films
Video that shows the journey from the nano-scale to the materialisation of bacterial cellulose into a textile-like material.
This paper examines potential scenarios for achieving reductions in environmental impact of the UK clothing economy through transformative changes and the need for significant shifts in business models for a sustainable future.
This paper uses material flow analysis to track clothing flows through the UK economy as a prelude to considering embodied carbon and changes in economic value across the system.
TCC's Materials Circularity research strand produced bacterial cellulose by recycling three different bio-based waste streams for a sustainable polymer production, which was introduced into preliminary trials for a clean production of regenerated cellulose fibres.
A card-based resource developed for use with consumers, designers, and industry to explore and re-design their experiences of the textile circular economy.
This paper explores how emerging creative technology and interaction design might support a shift in the role of citizens in the Circular Economy.
