Leading innovator in advanced biomaterials made from spider-silk based proteins, AMSilk GmbH, will display its collection of premium biofabricated yarns at PittiImmagineFilati. The event is scheduled to be held from June 25-27, 2024 in Florence, Italy.
The only company to successfully produce filament yarns form spider silk proteins, AMSilk aims to connect with other players in the luxury textile market and explore new opportunities for commercial collaboration and co-creation at PittiImmagineFilati.
AMSilk provides disruptive material solutions to help the world's leading brands address their carbon footprint with superior biofabricated yarns, opening up new opportunities to reinvent fashion.
Produced through biofabrication, AMSilk's fibers and yarns offer significant potential as future material solutions. These range from super fine yarn for silk-like premium fabrics to technical yarns for automotive interiors. These protein formulations are free from animal-origin substances or fossil-based raw materials, leaving no microplastics behind. At the end of their lifecycle, they are verifiably biodegradable or recyclable. Being biofabricated, these materials can be customised at a molecular level to meet specific market or product requirements.
A premier event for innovative yarns, PittiFilati attracts the most prestigious and influential brands and designers from around the world, says Benoit Cugnet, Head - Fiber BU, AMSilk.
