Spiber Co., Ltd., which develops protein fiber “Brewed Protein(TM)” by utilizing fermentation process based on plant-derived raw materials, will be participating in the global high-quality protein fiber to be held in Italy. We will be exhibiting for the first time at the value-added textile trade fair “Milano Unica”. At our booth, we will display more than 20 types of newly developed suit fabrics in collaboration with Takisada Nagoya Co., Ltd., a textile trading company based in Aichi Prefecture with a history of over 150 years. Takisada Nagoya is known for its unique and outstanding textile development, especially using wool, and is a trusted supplier to a wide range of customers around the world, from premium global brands to mass market brands. The suit fabric combines 10% to 50% Brewed Protein(TM) fiber with materials suitable for suits and jackets, such as wool and polyester, and has a wide and versatile lineup. Takisada Nagoya Co., Ltd. Men’s Wear Fabric Department Acting Manager / 2nd Section Manager | Comment from Ryuichi Tanaka “Brewed Protein(TM) fiber has a thin fiber diameter and is very compatible with worsted. Brewed is also very attractive in that it can create a sense of luxury and high quality texture that has never been seen before. Suit fabrics made with Protein(TM) fibers are not only sustainable, but also have a high-quality texture and unique luster that are different from silk or cashmere. We started this initiative because we felt it had the potential to develop and disseminate suit fabrics with new value.In the future, we will leverage our global production base to develop a wide range of materials, not just suit fabrics. We are considering applications.” In addition, through a partnership with A-GIRL’S, a textile manufacturer in Wakayama Prefecture known for the development and manufacture of circular knits with outstanding craftsmanship and trusted by many domestic and international maison brands, we have created a new We will exhibit 40 types of Brewed Protein(TM) fiber blend fabrics developed in 2017. The Brewed Protein(TM) fiber content ranges from 6% to 100%, and thanks to A-GIRL’S’ outstanding technology and deep understanding and knowledge of Brewed Protein(TM) fiber utilization cultivated since the start of our collaboration in 2023. The fabric is extremely soft and comfortable. Approximately 120 textile collections have been released in collaboration with the company. Comment from Tomohiro Yamashita, Representative Director and President of A Girls Co., Ltd. “Brewed Protein(TM) fiber is like a new seasoning when it comes to cooking, and has the potential to change the cuisine itself. Moreover, it is a new material that stimulates the creativity of developers, and we feel that it has the potential to realize projects beyond imagination. We also enjoy the joy of developing a fabric that is closer to human skin than any other material that has existed to date. As a manufacturing company, our philosophy is to aim for a future that eliminates waste and reduces the burden on natural resources and animals. Spiber’s unprecedented creativity and development technology will be indispensable for the future. I have high hopes that the company will support future technological innovation by entering not only the textile field but also new fields such as medicine and food. ” Fabrics developed by both companies will also be displayed and available for purchase at the Spiber booth in Milano Unica and the A-GIRL’S booth in Takisada Nagoya. Since its founding in 2007, Spiber has been expanding its research and development of protein materials for over 15 years, and in 2022, Spiber will launch its first plant in Thailand to mass produce protein polymers, which will be used as the raw material for fibers. Since then, in addition to the above two companies, we have partnered with major domestic and international spinning and textile manufacturers, including Italy’s Bod Giuseppe and Zegna Barfa, and China’s Consignee, as well as THE NORTH FACE, A-POC ABLE ISSEY MIYAKE, and United. It is also used in products from brands such as Arrows and Ron Herman, and the number of items sold is expanding. By continuing to develop, produce, and disseminate Brewed Protein(TM) fibers, we will work together to develop solutions that actively utilize the material in order to create solutions that contribute to a more sustainable society. We will continue to work to strengthen
collaboration and expand our network with all of our wonderful domestic and international suppliers.
Brewed Protein(TM) Fiber A high-quality fiber material made from
plant-derived raw materials using Spiber’s unique fermentation (brewing) technology. We are developing a new material category, “protein” fiber, by making circular manufacturing possible. Brewed Protein(TM) fibers are tailored to have the luster and delicacy of silk, the fine, smooth feel of cashmere, and the bulk of wool. Additionally, thanks to its plant-based ingredients and precise fermentation process, Brewed Protein(TM) fiber is expected to have significantly lower environmental and animal welfare impacts than traditional materials.
