Textiles: Eco-Design

Synopsis
How do you create the most eco-friendly surf-wear brand in the world? This DVD follows two designers from their HQ in Cornwall to fabric suppliers in Japan and manufacturers in Portugal. On the way they explain how they reduce the environmental and ethical impact of their clothes by considering the use of materials and energy throughout their design, manufacture, transportation and use. Viewers also see how they source and develop eco-friendly technical materials - from recycled polyester to organic wool and cotton.
