TEXTILEATHER

Functional textiles and leathers by innovative MLSE process (LIFE13 ENV/ES001138)

 

 cabecera textileather


LIFE TEXTILEATHER project focuses on the implementation of Multiple Laser Surface Technology (MLSE) for the treatment of textiles and leathers in order to provide them with functional properties.

The proposed MLSE technology is a dry, continuous process, able to significantly reduce the environmental impact of textile and leather finishing operations, especially in case of water- proofing, fire-retardant and antibacterial properties.

The environmental impact reduction, in terms of greenhouse gas emissions, chemicals and water consumption, as well as energy consumption, apply not only to the finishing process itself, but also to the further waste management process.
 

  

ObjeCtivE

The main objective of LIFE TEXTILEATHER project is to demonstrate, on a semi-industrial scale, the technical, environmental and financial feasibility of the SMLE technology for the treatment of textiles and leather.

EXPECTED ResultS

During the development of the project, and by means of the application of MLSE technology, the setting up of a feasible procedure for textile and leather functionalisation is expected.
