Coffee grounds can be made into clothes? Have you ever heard of coffee grounds as fabric?

Brewing coffee is still very strange to many people. After all, Chinese coffee culture is far from being integrated into the normal life of Chinese people, and the public more regard coffee as a delicious drink or coffee drink. However, a small number of "coffee fans" will use brewing coffee to add a new "flavor" to their daily life in order to taste the best coffee and taste. Brewing coffee gives rise to another problem: what should be done with coffee grounds? Let's take a look at the role of coffee grounds.

The leftover coffee grounds are carbonized at ultra-high temperature and transformed into coffee carbon fiber, and the underwear can store heat and keep warm. Cotton grown in an eco-organic way is made into organic cotton clothing, which is not only suitable for sensitive skin, but also reflects a love for the land. Green, low-carbon, environmental protection and sustainable development are not only the inevitable trend of the development of the textile and clothing industry, but also the main theme of this Ningbo International Fashion Festival. Many exhibitors display new products and technologies that are trying to return to nature and authenticity.

Thermal underwear made of coffee carbon sells well

What else can I do with leftover coffee grounds? At the Mawei clothing booth in Hall 1 of the Convention and Exhibition Center, a warm fabric made of coffee carbon attracts many visitors. In order to give you a detailed understanding of the process from coffee grounds to fabric, the exhibitor showed its evolution with three glass jars. "the coffee grounds left after drinking coffee are calcined and carbonized at an ultra-high temperature of 1000 degrees Celsius, then ground into nano-powders and added to polyester fiber, which is not only light and thin, but also can absorb temperature and heat." According to the staff, this kind of coffee carbon fabric is most suitable for making "hot underwear" that is popular in the market in recent years, which is not easy to deform naturally and environmentally friendly.

The clothing with the concept of environmental protection appears in the clothing festival and is highly sought after by consumers. In the direct sales booth of Ma Wei clothing in Hall 6 of the Convention and Exhibition Center, the reporter saw that this kind of coffee carbon thermal underwear was liked by many customers. Coffee carbon underwear was specially offered 39 yuan each, and many citizens bought three or four pieces in one breath. The staff told reporters that the underwear was sold out on the first day of the festival, and another batch was urgently replenished the next day.

Organic cotton clothing takes care of the health of the land

Organic food is very common in daily life, but organic cotton clothing is not much on the market. At Hall 3 of the Convention and Exhibition Center, Hong Kong Myth International launched a series of organic cotton garments, all cotton used for clothing is grown organically, and the textile process is required to be pollution-free, and some fabrics even retain the original particles of cottonseed.

"Organic cotton products reflect the care for the ecology of the land. A T-shirt needs about 2.67 square meters of cotton to be woven. We grow organic cotton in an ecological way on the beach of the Yellow River in Shanxi Province without spending pesticides. Water-saving planting can also save 10.5 buckets of water each year." According to Liu Zhimin of Maxi International in Hong Kong, the raw materials of organic cotton products are mainly organic fertilizers, biological control of diseases and insect pests, and natural farming management in agricultural production, the use of chemicals is not allowed, and no pollution is required in the production of textiles. The biggest advantage of organic cotton clothing is that it can relieve allergic symptoms, so it is more conducive to taking care of children's skin health.

Environmental protection is the theme of today's world. Since we live in the same global village, we need to find more good ideas for waste utilization and contribute to the environmental protection of the earth.
