AI-designed protein fibres as sustainable alternatives to synthetic textiles

Solena Materials is an industrial biotechnology company developing a new class of protein-based fibres for the fashion and performance apparel sectors.

Using proprietary deep learning models and computational protein design, the company engineers novel proteins from first principles, which are then produced using engineered microorganisms.

The resulting fibres are biodegradable and free of petrochemical inputs, targeting both luxury and high-performance textile applications.
