Umseki we-Untuckit usungula uhlobo lweempahla zemidlalo ezinokubola

I-polyester kunye ne-nylon yizona zinto zisetyenziswa kakhulu kwi-fashion industry, ngokukodwa kwibala lezemidlalo.Nangona kunjalo, zikwayenye yezona zinto zibi kakhulu ngokweendleko zokusingqongileyo.Ngaba iteknoloji eyongezelelweyo iyayicombulula le ngxaki?
Uphawu lwamanqaku aqinisekileyo lwasekwa nguAaron Sanandres, umseki kunye ne-CEO yenkampani yeehempe i-Untuckit. Iqaliswe kwinyanga edlulileyo kunye ne-mission: ukudala iqoqo lezemidlalo ezizinzileyo ngakumbi ukusuka kwiisokisi.Ilaphu leekawusi liqulunqwe yi-51% yenylon ezinzileyo, i-23% ye-BCI yekotoni, i-23% ye-polyester ehlaziyiweyo kunye ne-3% spandex. Yenziwe ngezongezo ze-Ciclo ze-granular, ezibanika iimpawu ezikhethekileyo: isantya sokuthotywa kwabo singokwemvelo njengendalo Izinto eziphathekayo zifana namanzi olwandle, izityalo zokucocwa kwamanzi amdaka kunye neendawo zokulahla, kunye neentambo ezifana noboya.
Ngexesha lo bhubhani, umseki waqaphela ukuba wayenxibe iikawusi zezemidlalo ngesantya esothusayo. Ngokusekwe kumava akhe e-Untuckit, inkampani ibhiyozele iminyaka elishumi kwintengiso kwinyanga ephelileyo kwaye iSanandres yatshintshelwa kolunye uhlobo olunozinzo. Uthathela ingqalelo i-equation yozinzo, i-carbon footprint yinxalenye yayo, kodwa ukungcoliseka kwendalo yenye inxalenye, "watsho. microplastics emanzini xa uhlamba iimpahla. Ngaphezu koko, ekuhambeni kwexesha, kuya kuthabatha amakhulu eminyaka ukuba ipolyester nenayiloni ziphucuke.”
Esinye sezizathu eziphambili zokuba kutheni iiplastiki zingenako ukuthotywa kwinqanaba elifanayo njengemicu yendalo kukuba abanalo isakhiwo esifanayo se-molecular evulekileyo.Nangona kunjalo, kunye ne-Ciclo additives, izigidi zeendawo ezinokutshatyalaliswa kwezinto eziphilayo ziveliswa kwisakhiwo seplastiki.Ii-Microorganisms ezikhoyo ngokwemvelo phantsi ezi meko zingasentla zinokubola iintsinga, njengemicu yendalo.Njengoko kuchaziwe kwiwebhusayithi yayo, iDefinite Articles ifake isicelo sesiqinisekiso se-B Corp.Ijonge ekugcineni imveliso yasekhaya ikhonkco lokubonelela elifumaneka kuphela eMntla Melika kunye nokusetyenziswa kweekhowudi zokuziphatha zababoneleli.
UAndrea Ferris, umseki wenkampani yezongezo zeplastiki iCiclo, usebenze kobu bugcisa iminyaka eli-10. Bangakwazi ukwakha amaqumrhu asebenzayo kwizinto eziphathekayo kwaye bachithe ngokupheleleyo izinto eziphathekayo. Xa ndisithi ukubola, into endiyithethayo Kukuwohloka kwezinto eziphilayo; zinokwahlula imolekyuli yepolyester, emva koko zetyise iimolekyuli zize ziyonakalise ngokwenene loo nto.”
Iintsinga ze-Synthetic yenye yeengxaki ezinkulu ezizama ukusombulula ifuthe layo lokusingqongileyo. Ngokwengxelo evela kwi-Sustainable Solutions Accelerator Ukutshintsha iiMarike ngoJulayi ka-2021, kuya kusiba nzima kwiimveliso zefashoni ukulahla ukuxhomekeka kwazo kwimicu yokwenziwa. Ingxelo iphonononga iintlobo ezahlukeneyo zeempawu, ukusuka kwiGucci ukuya kwiimpawu zokunethezeka ezifana neZalando kunye ne-Forever 21.Ngokubhekiselele kwimpahla yezemidlalo, uninzi lwezemidlalo. iimpawu ezihlalutywe kule ngxelo—kuquka i-Adidas, i-ASICS, i-Nike, ne-Reebok—zichaze ukuba uninzi lwengqokelela yazo zisekelwe kwizinto ezenziweyo. yophuhliso lwezinto eziphathekayo kunye nokuvuleleka kubuchule obutsha ngexesha lobhubhani kunokuqhuba intengiso yempahla yezemidlalo ukuba ityale imali kwizisombululo zeengxaki zayo zefayibha zokwenziwa.
UCiclo usebenze ngaphambili ngeemveliso ezibandakanya iCone Denim, ibrand yedenim yesintu, kwaye usebenza nzima ekwandiseni imarike yelaphu. Nangona kunjalo, nokuba uvavanyo lwezenzululwazi lubonelelwe kwiwebhusayithi yakhe, inkqubela ibicotha. kungekudala kwihlobo lika-2017,” utshilo uFerris. Nokuba itekhnoloji eyaziwayo, wonke umntu wanelisekile, kodwa kuyakuthatha iminyaka eliqela ukungena kwikhonkco lokubonelela. " Ngaphezu koko, izongezo zinokungeniswa kuphela kwasekuqaleni kwekhonkco lokubonelela, okunzima ukuyamkela ngomlinganiselo omkhulu.
Nangona kunjalo, inkqubela yenziwe ngokuqokelelwa kweempawu ezibandakanya amaNqaku aqinisekileyo. Kwinxalenye yayo, amaNqaku aqinisekileyo aya kwandisa iimveliso zayo zokunxiba kunyaka ozayo.Kwingxelo ye-Synthetics Anonymous, i-brand yezemidlalo i-Puma iphinde yachaza ukuba iyaqonda ukuba izinto zokwenziwa zi-akhawunti. Isiqingatha sezinto zayo ezipheleleyo zelaphu.Isebenza ukunciphisa ngokuthe ngcembe umlinganiselo wepolyester oyisebenzisayo, ebonisa ukuba iimpahla zemidlalo zinganciphisa ukuxhomekeka kwayo kwizinto zokwenziwa.Oku kunokuvakalisa utshintsho kwishishini.
