DITF and their French partner were honored for the introduction of a newly developed, hemp-based pulp and its further processing into filament-spun cellulose fibers.
Dr.-Ing. Thomas Fischer succeeds Professor Dr. Meike Tilebein, who will be working on new interdisciplinary research areas at the Institute for Diversity Studies in Engineering at the University of Stuttgart.
The DITF are coordinating the EU-funded project, which will develop recyclable outdoor and work clothing made from renewable bio-based materials. The kick-off event took place in Denkendorf on June 26/27.
A new type of pure synthetic leather meets the high requirements of the European Ecodesign Regulation. Made from a bio-based plastic, it is biodegradable and meets the requirements for a closed recycling process.

Together with international partners from industry and research, the DITF will be presenting a fully networked on-demand production of sports products at drupa's touchpoint textile - from virtual design to the finished product.
Thanks to flexible 3D textiles, wastewater from showers, bathtubs and washbasins can be recycled and returned to the cycle in almost any building to save space.
The DITF were awarded the prize in the "New Technologies" category for their research work on self-cooling textiles carried out in cooperation with Schill+Seilacher GmbH. The associated doctorate was financially supported by the Ingeborg Gross Foundation.
