Biofabricated Textile
Biofabricated Textile is a material grown from living cells like yeast, bacteria, or fungi, shaped into fabric without traditional weaving or knitting. In sustainable fashion, this method can use local agricultural waste as a food source for the cells, which means fewer resources are needed and less waste is created. Designers can control the thickness, texture, and even color of the textile during the growth process, which helps reduce the need for dyes and finishing chemicals. This process allows for custom shapes and sizes, which can help make clothing with fewer seams and less leftover material.
