P-tex-bac

Itatiaia, Brazil

About

P-tex bac is a vegan and biodegradable biofabric biomanufactured by bacteria. Available in original (brown) and translucent versions - the pioneering color available on the market. The biofabric sheet measures 50cm x 30cm, has a leather-like feel and appearance, UVA and UVB protection, thermal resistance and high tensile strength. The biofabric is an innovation co-produced with fermentation and is therefore ecologically integrated with regenerative and circular systems. As a sustainable alternative to leather, it prevents:

- soil degradation, deforestation, forest fires, pollution and water waste as it is a vegan material with a low water footprint;

- does not generate toxic waste from the dyeing/printing process as its coloring and texture are made naturally in the biomanufacturing process or with laser cutters, respectively; - eliminates the need for landfills that promote incorrect disposal of clothing by transforming it into nutritious and compostable waste due to its biodegradable nature.

In order to achieve greater performance, conservation and handling of the product and experience for our customers, we provide an interactive manual with an online/recorded orientation session created by our CEO who has specific expertise in the area of ​​fashion and design from new materials and an impact report affirming our commitment to transparency and SDGs
