This extremely thin, elastic and tear-resistant membrane, also called gold beater’s skin, was used in the past as a separating layer when beating gold leaf. <\/span><\/p>\n

Product designers Robin Hoske and Felix Rasehorn, founders of WINT Design Lab, together with Mimotype Technologies, saw the potential in the material to create durable and recyclable high-performance textiles free of plastic.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image media=”74174″ media_width_percent=”100″ media_ratio=”five-four” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”left” gutter_size=”3″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/1″][vc_column_text]Animal skins, due to their properties, have been <\/span>used by humans throughout history to create textiles <\/span>with water-repellent capabilities. During a one-year <\/span>research fellowship, WINT therefore investigated the <\/span>aesthetic and functional design features of the skin <\/span>of the goldbeater and sequenced the RNA. The goal: <\/span>to synthetically replicate the material properties, <\/span>develop a biopolymer and use it to make high- <\/span>performance textiles. In cooperation with Mimotype\u00a0<\/span>
Technologies, a biotech start-up from Berlin, and <\/span>funded by the BIOTEXFUTURE project of the ITA <\/a><\/span>Institute<\/span> of<\/span> Textile<\/span> Technology,<\/span> the<\/span> researchers <\/span>succeeded<\/span> in<\/span> cultivating<\/span> the<\/span> unique<\/span> material<\/span> in <\/span>bioreactors. The result is bio-synthetically grown <\/span>collagen substrate \u2013 vegan and biodegradable \u2013 <\/span>from which WINT has\u00a0 reated a running jacket that <\/span>meets both aesthetic and functional demands.<\/span><\/p>\n

While<\/span> the<\/span> global<\/span> demand<\/span> for<\/span> synthetic<\/span> textiles <\/span>continues to rise and their production consumes <\/span>large amounts of petrochemicals, energy and finite <\/span>raw\u00a0 materials, a new generation of water-repellent <\/span>outdoor jackets is thus born.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column column_width_percent=”100″ position_horizontal=”left” gutter_size=”3″ overlay_alpha=”50″ shift_x=”0″ shift_y=”0″ shift_y_down=”0″ z_index=”0″ medium_width=”0″ mobile_width=”0″ width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image media=”74184″ media_width_percent=”100″ media_ratio=”sixteen-nine” alignment=”center”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1676671037136{margin-right: 100px !important;margin-left: 100px !important;}”]<\/p>\n
