Biodegradation of Textile Fabrics Info-Sheets

In this combined PDF of three info-sheets, discover a summary of the research and the key findings from the Design for Transformation (D4T) Initiative's collaboration with Leeds University in the U.K. to conduct a literature review of the existing research examining the biodegradability of textile fabrics including colorants and finishing chemistries. The individual info-sheets – along with other resources – can be found on the Biomimicry Institute's Resources page.
