Behind the Scenes Biomimicry: Amphico is Revolutionizing the Textile Market


Listen Later

The ideal adventure apparel is both waterproof and breathable. Yet the tragic irony for outdoor enthusiasts is how toxic and wasteful the current clothing and gear options there are on the market. That's where Amphico comes in: a UK-based biomimicry company learning from waterproofing strategies in nature to create options without harmful chemicals while also eliminating the excessive waste. Isabella MacKenzie, the Lead Color and Textile Designer at Amphico, discusses their novel material and how they are accomplishing functionality without compromising human or environmental health. This episode will share a behind the scenes look into the biomimicry process and hopefully reveal that this practice is not only possible, but it's happening!

Explore Amphico and the new technology "Amphitex".
