TRIGEMA and EPEA International Environmental Research Co Ltd have developed a biodegradable T-shirt called TRIGEMA-Shirts, made of organic recyclable materials. They are not different from ordinary cotton clothing in terms of their comfort.

In addition, according to the staff of the German Pavilion, the cotton T-shirt will be completely decomposed once it comes into contact with the corresponding bacterial environment.

Even clothing fuel and buttons will not cause environmental problems during degradation.

The German Pavilion decided that after the completion of the World Expo in Shanghai, these T-shirts would be buried under the German Pavilion to provide nourishment for the trees in the Expo Park.

Buried in soil can be completely degraded, but its

stability

It is not bad. It will not appear embarrassing in the process of wearing or washing.

And its cost is not expensive. The cheapest one is only 18 Mark, about 76 yuan, and the most expensive one is only about 300 yuan, which is similar to the ordinary brand T-shirt.

Domestic enterprises are also developing a large number of new types of "green fibers", such as corn fibers made from corn husk shells, which are also easily biodegradable. About 3 pounds of corn husk can be made into a T-shirt.

In addition, there is a blend of degradable protein softening fiber, hot air permeability, so that the skin has been in the most comfortable environment.
