JURY STATEMENT:
The fact that the products are mono­materials is a good approach for greater sustainability and less envi­ronmental impact with regard to both production and recycling. The tactile qualities resemble those of natural materials. The ap­pearance of the materials is also surprising thanks to interesting ef­fects such as colour gradients.

 

Jahrbuch Focus Open 2020:

The three materials stand for a whole series of textiles that the manufactur­er develops for a wide range of different applications in vehicle interiors. All the members of this family of knitted 2D and 3D textiles are compatible with the automotive sector and designed for maximum sustainability. 3:Cycling stands for a 3D polyester mono-material that doesn’t require an additional foam backing. Eliade feels like leather, and Smart Finish uses special production processes to reduce climate impacts while simultane­ously reducing the number of process steps required later on. Focus Open 2020.
