ZERO-TEX®

The New Era of Materials
The Next Generation of Materials

The third generation of

ZERO-TEX®

The first generation

We contributed to the reduction of waste by developing
a reusable infection prevention garment instead of a disposable one.

The second generation
We launched the concept of “BIOTECHWORKS® Zero Waste Clothing”,
which is a new technology to convert used clothing into
hydrogen energy.

The third generation
We have succeeded in reducing CO2 emissions by 52%*
in the manufacturing process, realizing even more
environmentally friendly production.
*Compared with our emissions in 2019.

0%

Zero impact on the earth!

0%

Zero disposables!

0%

Zero infection!

0%

And with conversion to hydrogen,
zero waste!

ABOUT OUR TIMELINE

The ZERO-TEX
First Generation

In 2020, due to the Covid-19 pandemic, our core business, apparel, suffered an unprecedented recession.
Apparel brands around the world were closing or closing stores, struggling with inventory, and the aftermath reached us. Our business outlook was pessimistic and we contemplated what to do…
We hate to be pessimistic, and we want to help people. So we started developing a washable material for infection-prevention clothing. This was the first generation of the material on which the current ZERO-TEX® is based.
In December 2020, we succeeded in developing ZERO-TEX®.

New Challenges from Washable Infection Prevention Clothing

In April 2021, ZERO-TEX was finally launched as a product.

ABOUT OUR TIMELINE

5 Million USD

First-year sales for our two ZERO-TEX products have been 5 million USD (approximately 550 million Japanese Yen).

ABOUT OUR TIMELINE

The ZERO-TEX
Second Generation

However, we realized that three ZEROs were not enough. We needed a fourth, ZERO waste.
We started the development of the new generation of ZERO-TEX® with this in mind: what is truly environmentally friendly recycling that does not generate waste?

Apparel Product Disposal Volume and Waste Disposal Methods

In Japan alone, more than 3 billion garments are discarded annually, and more than 20 billion garments are discarded worldwide. In addition, most of the existing apparel recycling is thermal recycling (incineration to generate electricity), which is no different from conventional waste incineration from a carbon-neutral perspective.

Step into the New Era

THE OTHER PROJECT

The Garbage Goes Back to ZERO

Our project Biotech Works will produce hydrogen from discarded apparel products in Silicon Valley, USA. Finally, in December 2021, we started our green hydrogen project in California and Japan.
