🌍 Innovation Meets Sustainability: Nature Of Fabrics 🌱 💫 FreyZein - NextGen Textiles, with Heaqquarter in Graz and TechLab in Dornbirn, is redefining sustainability with recyclable & circular textiles. Using cellulose, one of nature’s most abundant raw materials, the company creates eco-friendly alternatives to synthetic fabrics like polyester. 💫 🔬👩🔬 With patented processes, FreyZein makes cellulose water-resistant, breathable, and durable – ideal for outdoor apparel, free from harmful additives like PFCs. A true industry game-changer! 🎯 🏗 Proudly supported by programs like “Austria Wirtschaftsservice: Seedfinancing – Deep Tech” and a 3-years General Programme from the FFG Austrian Research Promotion Agency, FreyZein is developing multilayer fabrics that are water-repellent 💦, insulating 🐧, and 100% recyclable ♻️ . 💥 FreyZein - NextGen Textiles proves that innovation and targeted support can drive sustainability across industries, from fashion to construction and aerospace. 💥 🚀 Our first product TerraDown launches are planned for 2025. What does sustainability mean to you in product development? Let’s discuss!
