* Current textile industry lacks innovative production techniques
that can increase production capacity, efficiency, and quality
* Current hydrophilic treatment methods:
Are costly
Have limited applications
Harmful to the environment (Creates chemical waste)
Consume high energy and water
Are dangerous to human (silicon dioxide)
* Due to COVID-19 pandemic:
There is an excessive demand for hydrophilic fabrics (for PPE)
There is a shortage of hydrophilic fabrics and PPE
58% of American nurses reuse single-use PPE3
Increasing death and infection rates4,9 (3000 health-care workers) Addressing the scarcity of key fabric inputs for products such as surgical face masks, Fabrizon eliminates bottlenecks and reduces manufacturing time and cost in a sustainable manner. Fabrizon is less energy-intensive and produces no waste, making it ideal for sustainable textile treatment.
