2021

Flaux (/floʊ/) is a non-woven textile, flexible sheet, or leather-like material developed from flower waste.

 

Flaux contains flower petals, such as roses and carnations, as the main ingredient and its sole color agent. Therefore, no artificial colorants or oil-based ingredients are needed, making it all-natural and microplastic-free.

 

To demonstrate the material’s ability to be made into lifestyle products, a small clutch bag and a set of coin purses were prototyped.
