This shift is critical because, as Dr. Benjamin Droguet, Founder and CEO of Sparxell, notes, &#8220;Nobody asks what makes a product blue or red&#8230;behind every shade is a chemistry that can persist in the environment and accumulate in the body. That invisibility is exactly the problem.&#8221; Synthetic dyes are often petroleum-based and a major source of water pollution along with microplastic shedding. However, Sparxell has produced the world&#8217;s first plant-based pigment that eliminates the need for chemicals completely:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\">This is where the fashion industry has a chance to move beyond &#8220;less bad&#8221; and start being &#8220;actually good&#8221; for the planet. We talk a lot about sustainable beauty and fashion at PhotoBook, but this film really exposes how much we&#8217;ve been ignoring the toxins we live in every day. Sparxell&#8217;s technology is inspired by the structural color found in nature, such as the vibrant wings of butterflies and the skins of exotic fruits. Sparxell creates intense, metallic, and iridescent colors that are fully biodegradable and free of toxins. It is refreshing to see a company that isn&#8217;t just greenwashing an old problem, but completely redesigning the building blocks of style.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sparxell is redefining the textile industry&#8217;s relationship with color and how it&#8230;(01:46).
