UPWEARS (2024-2028)
UPWEARS aims to contribute to structural resource efficiency and a sustainable economy by unlocking the potental of a new generation of biobased and hybrid fabrics for e-textile. UPWEARS e-textile will feature high performance, cost-effective multi-functionality, such as functonalized yarn and fibre, biomimeticfabrics, imbedded electronics and energy sensors. Partners will ensure a reduced environmental impact on the manufacturing valuechain and end product – a country cycling suit – fully recycled.

SUBBIMATT (2024-2028)
The SUBBIMATT project is developing biobased and bioinspired sustainable Smart Textile Materials to address current and future energy needs. The novel materials include debondable adhesives, bio-polyurethane, and negative thermoresponsive materials, leading to advanced applications in shape morphing building envelopes, automotive interiors, and adaptive garments.

BioFibreLoop (2024-2027)
BioFibreLoop project will revolutionise textile functionalisation and dramatically reduce the use of hazardous chemicals. Natural morphologies will be mimicked by using laser technology to achieve textiles with functionalities such as hydrophobicity, oil repellence, self-cleaning, and antibacterial activity.
