Pitch
The main idea of the project is the production of green textiles (multi-functional composites with seedlings, mainly lettuce). Green textiles are made in the form of a knitted mat with magnetic properties and their magnetic field causes plant growth intensification. All green textile composites are biodegradable and compostable, which contributes to agricultural development. Moreover, there is a special composition of essential oils implemented in the green textiles. The oils act as a natural repellent against pests, such as snails. The final product is upcycled for commercial use in agriculture. It is made of materials obtained in the process of recycling and with the use of textile technologies combined with methods of DOD printing with functionalized inks. Our product allows to save the time, energy, human resources and money.
