seaweed (海藻)

​​

Seaweed-based textiles are a fairly new concept; nori's unique properties and sustainable sourcing make it a remarkable option for an eco-friendly future.

 

As a renewable resource, nori can be cultivated without harming delicate ecosystems. Its rapid growth rate positions it as an ideal alternative to conventional textile crops, which often rely heavily on water, pesticides, and fertilizers.

 

But it’s not just about sustainability; its glossy sheen, suede-like texture, and natural flexibility make it a versatile choice for innovative designs in the realm of eco-friendly fashion.
