Spiber is a Japanese biotechnology company founded in 2008.
With brand development based on close observation of the natural world, Spiber’s Brewed Protein™ materials are produced by a fermentation process that uses sugars and microbes, rather than petrochemical or animal-derived raw materials.
Inspired by spider silk, the final material is sustainable and ethical and can be used in a variety of industries such as apparel, transportation, construction, artificial hair and medical devices. Science and technology are certainly powerful tools for achieving a positive impact on the world.
This is how Spiber contributes, in its own way, to the common effort to create a more sustainable future for humanity and nature, both now and for generations to come. “We must work to achieve our fullest potential in the environment given to us – in other words, fulfilling our reason for being. While our individual efforts may be small, the combined endeavors of many can bring about large benefits to society that return to us on a personal level.”
We are fascinated by this kind of innovation. Aren’t you?
