TENCEL, “INGREDIENT” FOR INNOVATIVE TEXTILES
At the heart of innovation in the textile field are materials that are the result of careful research, often studied to respond to precise market demands, and then interpreted by companies according to their needs.
The talk “Tencel™ – A good “Ingredient” for Textiles” brought to Filo’s “Dialoghi di Confronto” a clear example of the design process and the possible uses of innovative fibers. In a dialogue with Olga Pirazzi (Cittadellarte/Fondazione Pistoletto), Carlo Covini, BD Manager Italy & Switzerland – Lenzing AG, explained how Tencel™ fiber is an “ingredient”, which is interpreted in different ways through the knowledge of spinners and then weavers and knitters, capable of emphasizing its botanical origin, biodegradability, performance and silkiness.
