Nanollose is a g biotechnology company which develops microbial cellulose fabric through fermentation and other chemical processes. While its chemical structure is very similar to cotton, microbial cellulose is produced from a sustainable bioprocess that utilizes the ability of Acetobacter xylinum, a non-hazardous bacterium, to produce nanocellulose microfibers that come together to form a very dense, tightly packed fabric.
As a fermentation process manufactures microbial cellulose, it can be made on an industrial scale without the environmental impacts and expensive inputs and processing of cotton. It can also be “grown into shape”, enabling one-piece seamless garments with no stitching, a valuable innovation to the fashion industry.
