T -shirt that captures CO2 from the environment and eliminates it in washing is released

In September 2024, the textile market followed the creation of the first national network capable of capturing carbon dioxide (CO2) from the environment and eliminating it from the washing process.

Now, as a milestone for national fashion, the Brazilian fashion group Malwee announces, firsthand CNN the launch of the Ar.Voree T -shirt. The news reaches the consumer on the next day May 22 date that celebrates the International Biodiversity Day . With limited edition and black color, the piece will have exclusive sale in the brand e-commerce for $ 129.

Today, the fashion industry accounts for 2% to 8% of the global carbon emission, according to agencies United Organization (UN). The element is even known for having the largest contribution to global warming and, consequently, climate change.

The dynamics of the “Ar.Voree” T -shirt

The result of a partnership with Singapore Xinterra’s startup, through Cozterra technology, the AR.Voree T -shirt represents a concrete advance in the development of regenerative solutions applied to fashion. After 25 uses and washes, a single piece is able to capture the same amount of CO2 as an adult tree, becoming a true agent of environmental transformation.

“We believe innovation is one of the most effective paths for a more conscious fashion and less environmental impact. Fashion, technology and sustainability need to walk together. And this piece is an invitation for people to be part of this cycle,” says Gregório Reis, Malwee Group Marketing Director.

This is the first practical application, in clothing, of the technology developed after two years of research.

Briefly, the tissue captures the CO2 of the atmosphere, which when contacting liquid or powder soap during washing is transformed into baking soda, being safely eliminated. This process also reloads CO2 capture agents in the T -shirt, allowing it to continue to function as a “carbon filter” with each use. It is a simple, effective and sustainable solution to help reduce the impact of carbon on the environment.
