William
McDonough have developed a fabric called 'DesignTex' which has been reworked
from the standard dyed synthetic material (which can be very toxic,
containing the likes of cadmium and giving off chemical gasses).
'DesignTex' now use sustainably grown natural wool and ramie fibers and low
environmental impact dyes that are non carcinogenic, non toxic and include
no heavy metals. Any scrap left over is used as non toxic compostable felt
and used to insulate crops - it soon decomposes and nourishes the earth.
