Sustainable Innovations #4: "Sunkolor" by Panorama Fabrics
"Sunkolor" by Panorama Fabrics - The Textile UV Indicator
SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS Spring.Summer 23 #4
With climate change still gathering momentum, the intensity of the sun’s invisible UV rays is also increasing. The problem: the intensity is not visible to the eye. The result: sunburn and damage to our skin that sometimes only appears years later which makes it all the more important to protect our important organ.
Exactly this is possible with Sunkolor. The material helps to visually perceive sun exposure and to establish a healthy relationship with it as a result. The technology Panorama Fabrics, the material driven Design Studio from Berlin, manages to make UV rays visible. For this purpose, Sunkolor yarns, which are produced in Germany, are woven into textiles.
When exposed to sunlight, the colour of the material changes thus indicating the dangerous UV index range. The change of colour makes it immediately clear once the situation becomes critical. In the first step, the yarns will be attached in labels to hiking backpacks. In the long term, a variety of different or outdoor garments will be made from this yarn.
The vision:
Create new tools to adapt in a changing environment caused by climate change.
Panorama Fabrics studio aims to contribute with its own products and pioneering designs to highlight the possible interaction between textiles, humans and our climate. Research is being carried out on innovations to make more people aware of the effects of climate change and at the same time support them in dealing with it. The two founders, Gabriela Kapfer and Karina Wirth, share a fascination for different materials and a passion for interdisciplinary collaboration, which enables them to create something new and progressive together.
“Sunkolor makes the invisible visible to create awareness.”
– Gabriela Kapfer & Karina Wirth

ReSOURCE: Sustainable Leather & Alternatives
Here’s what to look for in Leather Alternatives at ReSOURCE
Whatever has led you here, you are already thinking about the reasons a brand has for choosing between the seemingly massive range of leathers and leather alternatives available. This decision usually begins with a basic understanding of the manufacturing processes in order to decide, does the final material reflect brand values, share brand beliefs and share the same innovative approach? To help choose the best option for you, we provide material highlights from our recent showcase on ReSOURCE to directly connect you with industry partners who can support in your next steps.
There are over 50 kinds of sustainable textile and material certifications used across our materials showcased online and at our shows with ReSOURCE. Get to know which 4 you should be familiar with when it comes to sourcing sustainable leathers and leather alternative materials:
Leather Standard by Oeko-Tex
Specifically tailored to leather articles which have been tested for harmful substances. Certification can be awarded for leather semi-finished products, finished leather, leather fibre materials up to finished articles and accessories.
Look for Leather Standard by Oeko-Tex certified materials if you are interested in:
- using real leather materials
- materials which are committed to reducing their chemical use and using safer alternatives
- ensuring your products are harmless to health
Standard 100 by Oeko-Tex
All types of textiles that have been tested for harmful substances, from yarns to the finished product, may bear the STANDARD 100 product label.
Look for Oeko-Tex 100 certified materials if you are interested in:
- certified materials with an innovative approach
- materials which are committed to reducing their chemical use and using safer alternatives
- ensuring your products are harmless to health
V-Label by European Vegetarian Union (EVU)
The only requirement of this certificate is that the product is vegan/vegetarian, meaning the product must not contains products of animal origin; no animal auxiliaries may be used during the production process.
Look for V-Label certified materials:
- to ensure materials which are vegan, cruelty free and animal friendly
- to include in brand marketing, communication and raise brand awareness
- support the development of further innovative textile and accessories vegan alternatives
Cradle to Cradle by Cradle to Cradle (C2C)
Cradle to cradle (C2C) is an approach to a continuous and consistent recycling management. “Cradle-to-cradle products” are therefore those that can either be returned to biological cycles as biological nutrients or can be continuously kept in technical cycles as “technical nutrients”.
Look for Cradle to Cradle certified materials if you are interested in:
- ensuring production is focused on reducing water wastage and usage, fostering a closed loop system using wet processes
- materials which are committed to reducing their chemical use and using safer alternatives
- materials which use reduced energy in the supply chain, with use of renewable energy with minimal reliance on petro-chemicals
- materials which reduce and recycle waste throughout the textile supply chain
Other sustainable certifications to get to know when sourcing sustainable leathers & alternatives include: IVN Naturleder, Recycled Claim Standard (RCS) + Global Recycled Stand (GRS)

ReSOURCE: The Recyled Edit
ReSOURCE: A CLOSER LOOK AT RECYCLED MATERIALS
Conscious fashion can mean many different things, but for you as an ethical fashion brand it means starting at the very foundations to ensure your garments are part of the solution and not adding to the problems caused by fast fashion and over consumption.
While virgin fibres and organic naturals are certainly the first fabrics which come to mind, there is not one fabric which is inherently without fault. Therefore, when thinking of which fabrics to feature in your new collections, why not consider that recycled fabrics offer diverse and innovative solutions to one of the fashion industry’s biggest pollutant problems; reusing and repurposing materials which already exist.
With each new season, more innovative materials and processes are launched with ReSOURCE. Directly supporting the growth of textile recycling as a way to ensure more materials are diverted from landfills.Let’s take a look at the diverse performance, functions and blends of recycled fabrics which are showcased on our sustainable sourcing platform, ReSOURCE.
