Under the MOU, Nanollose Limited and Spanish retail company Inditex, which owns Zara, have agreed to the non-exclusive delivery of “tree-free” (and/or blended) nullarbor lyocell samples from the company’s current pilot programme with Birla Cellulose.
Nullarbor lyocell is said to be finer than silk and significantly stronger than conventional lyocell that is traditionally produced from wood pulp. Nanollose uses an eco-friendly fermentation process to grow fibres based on various streams from the food and agricultural industries.
Nanollose says the MOU with Inditex is indicative of the “significant interest and demand for sustainable solutions in the fashion and textile industry, and the willingness and commitment of industry leaders such as Inditex to seek out and support the sustainable innovations that Nanollose has to offer.”
