Matt Matern chats with Tricia Carey of Renewcell and Alissa Baier-Lentz of Kintra Fibers, discussing textile waste. The fashion industry contributes 10% of global pollution. Carey talks about Renewcell's recycling of textiles into new fibers, aiming for 1.5 billion t-shirts annually by 2030.
Baier-Lentz explains Kintra's bio-based, compostable polymers as alternatives to polyester. Both stress designing for recyclability, sustainable practices, and consumer awareness.
