A Material Glossary for Designers

Biodegradability: Imagine textiles that dissolve back into the earth, enriching the soil rather than lingering in landfills. This is the magic of biodegradables. Organic cotton and lyocell are prime examples, breaking down into harmless substances thanks to friendly microbes. Hemp, bamboo, and even soy silk join the roster, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional fabrics.

Rapid Renewability: Nature provides a wealth of fast-growing options for textiles. Bamboo, with its rapid regeneration cycle, exemplifies this approach. Alongside hemp and organic cotton (grown with sustainable practices), these materials minimize environmental impact by replenishing resources quickly.

Post-Consumer Recycled Content: Giving new life to what once was: Post-consumer recycled content textiles are crafted from materials like used clothing or plastic bottles, diverting waste from landfills and reducing the need for virgin resources.

Recyclable Content: Imagine textiles designed for a second act! Recyclable content fabrics, made from recycled fibers or renewable materials, promote a circular economy. Whether composed of recycled polyester or organic cotton, these textiles minimize environmental impact throughout their lifecycle.

With this glossary in hand, explore HBF's new palettes, where these remarkable textiles take center stage. These collections offer a glimpse into the future of textiles—a future where exquisite design and environmental responsibility are inextricably linked.
