The ATRG and other staff members from the Nottingham School of Art and Design have published a new research article exploring approaches to evaluate and improve the sustainability of E-textiles. The article, ‘Exploring Sustainable Approaches for Electronic Textile Products and Prototypes‘, details an examination of three commercial products as well as a prototype created using E-yarn technology. This knowledge is highly important for us to ensure that E-textiles produced using E-yarns are as sustainable as possible, and the article provides a methodology that can be applied during the design of new E-textile prototypes to ensure that good sustainable practises are adhered to. The article is available here.
