Over the course of three years we have explored the nuances of biodegradation and natural models for transformation in order to integrate these lessons to the global textile life cycle. The threshold research was to explore the scientific literature to understand the mechanism of decomposition in various organisms; we then reviewed the literature to compile existing decomposition technologies that emulate these biological processes. In addition, our pilot partners each conducted deep analysis of waste flows in their regions to characterize what and where textiles were going. The following resources—a compilation of these learnings and more—are meant to guide industry stakeholders to better understand how biodegradation works in nature and how it can be integrated into industry to lead to a more regenerative future.
