Creative Tech Textile
Creative Tech Textile has introduced Seawool, an eco-friendly fabric made by blending recycled oyster shells with PET plastic bottles. This innovative textile offers a sustainable solution to two major environmental problems, marine waste and plastic pollution.
Seawool is not just environmentally conscious, it also provides functional benefits such as moisture-wicking, UV protection, and thermal regulation. Additionally, it requires less water and has lower production costs compared to traditional materials like wool or down.
With an annual output of 2,500 tons, Seawool is gaining popularity among leading fashion brands. Its circular production approach appeals to environmentally aware consumers who want alternatives to petroleum-based fabrics and resource-heavy natural fibres.
