PACT to showcase pioneering design collection at The Mills Fabrica’s ‘Planet Saving Innovations’ Exhibition

PACT revolutionises sustainable fashion with the debut of its SS24 collection. Showcasing the design-led biomaterial Oval, the collection epitomises creativity, innovation, and environmental consciousness, setting a new standard for the fashion industry.

Cambridge, 16 May 2024 – Cambridge-based bioinnovation company PACT is unveiling a ground-breaking design collection of prints and colours for its signature biomaterial, Oval, at The Mills Fabrica 's latest exhibition, #PlanetSavingInnovations. The exhibition, hosted at Fabrica X – The Mills Fabrica's innovation gallery and concept store in London – will open its doors to the public on 13 May, running through to the end of September 2024.

‘Planet Saving Innovations' is a celebration of the leading innovations within the fashion and textile industries, tackling our planet’s environmental challenges. At the heart of the exhibition lies the recognition that sustainable fashion requires not just environmental consciousness but also an appreciation for design—and it's precisely this intersection where PACT excels.

Oval, PACT’s patented biomaterial, offers a canvas for creativity in fashion design. It has been meticulously crafted with designers in mind, offering unparalleled suppleness, hand feel, and endless customisation. Its natural collagen base provides supreme flexibility, facilitating intricate embellishments and precise colour application, making it a material unlike any other.

"We believe that a successful biomaterial is one that not only addresses environmental concerns but also values and facilitates design," says PACT’s co-founder Yudi Ding. "With Oval, we've created a unique material that not only fulfils brands' needs for sustainability but also serves as a platform for boundless creativity."

At the heart of PACT’s design philosophy lies the commitment to push the boundaries of what's possible. Inspired by nature, the SS24 collection embodies the beauty and resilience of the natural world. But what really sets this collection apart is not just its aesthetic appeal but the technology behind it. Notably, Oval is the first biomaterial to feature prints created using AI, enhancing the design possibilities of new-generation materials.

"We're incredibly honoured to present our SS24 collection at 'Planet Saving Innovations'," says Ding. "This collection represents the culmination of years of research, innovation, and a deep commitment to sustainability and design-led bioinnovation. We're excited to share our vision with the world."
