THE WINNING PROJECT
WEARPURE. TECH, Noumena – PrimLab, Reshape, Spain
Wearpure.Tech is an advanced polymer that integrates CO2pure, a composite 100% natural mineral developed and certified by Primlab that mineralises the main greenhouse effect gases (CO2 and NOx) and reduces volatile organic compounds (VOC).
It can be used as an additive during the production of three-dimensional textiles. Noumena and Primlab developed Wearpure.tech with 3D printers to face environmental pollution. It absorbs greenhouse gases and reduced volatile organic compounds. Two items from the collection were showcased at the show.
The Fashion Digital Night is promoted by the Fondazione Mondo Digitale in collaboration with Altaroma and in partnership with 3DiTALY, WeMake, REA Academy, Fabricademy, Reshape, ITmakES and the Italian Consulate General in Barcelona. We would like to thank Fab Lab Frosinone, Accademia di Belle Arti di Napoli and Fab Lab Perù for their help.
