THE TEXTILE INDUSTRIES NEW FRONTIER: Sustainable Microfiber Filtration Technology with Matter Industries and Paradise Textiles
“Microfiber pollution is one of the most urgent issues facing the textile industry. Synthetic fibers, which comprise a significant portion of modern fabrics, shed millions of microscopic particles during manufacturing and washing processes. According to recent studies, garment production and laundering are responsible for 35% of the microplastic pollution in our oceans. These microfibers not only impact marine ecosystems but also infiltrate human bodies, posing severe risks to health by accumulating in organs and disrupting critical systems.”
