Specifically, Mercedes is using AMSilk’s Biosteel fiber in the door pulls of its VISION EQXX concept electric car, which is intended to “[reveal] a way forward for luxury design that conserves resources and is in balance with nature.” Biosteel is a high-strength, vegan fiber made using AMSilk’s proprietary biotechnology processes.
“Amid a fresh wave of ambitious climate pledges, we are proud to be playing a leading role in providing solutions for a zero-waste future,” Ulrich Scherbel, Chief Executive Officer of AMSilk said in a press statement.
