We aim to develop one such application: biobased piezoelectric fibres (piezofibres) for use in… Project tExtended – Knowledge based Blueprint for Extended Textile Circularity The accumulation of textile waste is a global challenge that requires efficient recycling solutions, as it is estimated that less than 1% of textile waste is currently being recycled as a secondary textile raw material. tExtended … Project DoubleBio - Biobased and biodegradable textiles The project DoubleBio aims to develop a textile fibre which is biobased and biologically degradable in sea and land. The fibre will be especially suitable for use in nonwoven single-use textiles such as agricultural textiles, pac… Service Post processing of textile fibres RISE in Mölndal offers a broad expertise within post processing of textile fibres, from different raw materials and for different end uses. Expertise Melt spinning RISE has broad expertise in melt spinning, from the production of textile fibres using bio-based or recycled raw materials, to the development of high-performance and specialty fibres such as electrically conductive or piezoelectr… Expertise Development of nonwoven materials Nonwovens are versatile and cost-effective materials. We are used to seeing nonwovens in car interiors, surface materials in hygiene products, and in molded furniture, but they are often hidden, such as in sound absorbers in dishw…
