Spider silk is one of the most promising textile innovations. It is an animal fiber derived from the secretions of spider glands. As it is very rare, production is not yet industrialized.

IS IT ECO-RESPONSIBLE?

Spider silk is now considered a natural alternative to traditional silk because it is durable and biodegradable. Unlike traditional silk, it does not involve any animal cruelty.

WHAT ARE THE LIMITS ?

Because of the many constraints linked to its production, researchers have been inspired by nature to replicate it in the laboratory. However, the cost of this production is still very high.
