BUILDING WITH TEXTILE WASTE
In a world where the textile industry generates 20 % of global waste , with millions of tons of clothing ending up in landfills every year , an innovative solution emerges . Created by architect Clarisse Merlet , FabBRICK transforms discarded garments into ecological and durable bricks .
Motivated by the search for sustainable building materials , Merlet found the answer in recycled clothing . By combining textiles with eco-friendly glue , she created bricks with amazing properties : resistance to fire , humidity and thermal and acoustic insulation . The company not only reduces textile pollution , but also offers a sustainable and efficient building alternative .
With FabBRICK , clothing that was once destined for landfill now has a new purpose . It becomes a key element in the construction of more sustainable and environmentally friendly buildings . This initiative not only addresses the problem of textile waste , but also fosters innovation in the construction sector and promotes a greener future for the fashion industry .
Its potential extends beyond recycled clothing . The technology could be adapted to use other discarded textile materials , such as carpets , curtains and upholstery . In this way , FabBRICK could become a comprehensive solution to reduce the environmental impact of the textile industry as a whole .
An inspiring example of how innovation and creativity can transform environmental problems into sustainable solutions . By giving new life to discarded clothing , we will contribute to a greener future for construction and fashion .
