Накратко на български

Рибината се изследва като устойчива суровина за модата чрез разработване на нетоксични методи за дъбене. Това помага за намаляване на отпадите от риболова и предпазва морските екосистеми от замърсяване.

Developing Fish Skin as a sustainable raw material for the fashion industry

Global production of fish has been steadily increasing over the last decade and is expected to continue. Aquaculture has grown substantially over recent years, and it is an economic development in remote areas where alternative employment is limited. However, more than 50% of the total fish capture remaining material is not used as food, resulting in almost 32 million tons of waste. A substantial amount of this waste is the skin of the fish; only a neglected percentage of these skins is processed into leather although the knowledge exists. Fish waste management has been a problem; to date, the European Environment Protection agency allows seafood processors to dispose fish skins in marine waters, this is expected to change as the decomposing organic waste can suck up available oxygen from marine species or introduce disease to the local ecosystem. Consequently, a technology for sustainable processing of fish leather at an industrial scale can be of great environmental benefit as well as economical profit. This RISE project aims to achieve this goal by forming a group of academics and industry professionals from the entire possible value chain related to fish skin in order to study ancient traditions, learn from existing state of the art practices and develop new technologies while addressing specific challenges that will arise from augmenting the use of fish skin leather for the fashion industry. These challenges include: • Maintaining a balanced fish population • Keeping the environment clean by creating non-toxic tanning methods for fish skin • Demonstrating the use, value and sustainability aspects of fish skin leather compared with exotic leather and other possible alternatives • Elevating the quality and range of finishes of fish skin in non-polluting techniques; and: • Helping the fashion industry assimilate and accept this raw material according to its high standard and desirable qualities

Цел на проекта

The Fashion industry is currently going through a significant change in its approach towards sustainability, aiming to transform from a wasteful and polluting industry into the into a cleaner and more circular sector. In FISHSkin, our research concentrates on developing a new category of raw material for fashion – fish leather. we aim to amalgamate the Mariculture and Fashion industry by using both the fish flesh and skin as viable, economically useful products. While fish leather was used for centuries by indigenous people in Northern Europe and Asia, it was pushed aside by hides which offered better characteristics. Today, however, circular economy principles combined with state-of-the-art technology and changing consumer tastes – allow us to challenge existing fashion assumptions and explore the viability of fish leather is this industry. Through secondments and network training events we will generate knowledge cohesion from different disciplines: Fashion design, Material science and Marine biology where academic and industrial experts will strive to develop new techniques and methodologies for a market take up of fish leather at an industrial scale.
