Normally, waste clothing is disposed of through a combustion process that emits huge amounts of greenhouse gases, which are seriously harmful to the health of the planet. For this reason, many companies and industries in the sector have decided to adopt new behavioral norms to protect the Earth and its precious resources. <strong>Among these green companies there is also Paneco, the new Japanese brand founded by Kazuhiro Hara<\/strong>, which makes sustainable panels from recycled clothes.<\/p>\n<h3>When sustainability meets innovation<\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/paneco.tokyo\">Paneco<\/a><\/strong><strong> collects<\/strong> <strong>discarded clothing and textile waste, including leather and carbon fiber, and transforms them into decorative panels<\/strong> with multiple uses. It strips the garments of all superfluous components (zippers, buttons, decorative elements), then crushes and grinds them. Once processed, the material is ready for the final transformation. And through a sophisticated system of presses it produces Paneco panels, which in turn are 100% recyclable at the end of their life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>Discover<\/strong> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/designdiffusion.com\/en\/2022\/02\/28\/the-fabric-with-a-sustainable-color\/\">Albini Group&#8217;s fabric<\/a><\/strong><strong> in sustainable colors<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-161662 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.designdiffusion.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/PANECO.jpg\" alt=\"paneco-pannelli-sostenibili\" width=\"1265\" height=\"1372\" \/><\/h3>\n<h3>Paneco sustainable panels: versatile and multifunctional<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Paneco panels are versatile and multifunctional<\/strong>.
