But when it comes to the life cycle of everyday products, such as furniture, the connections are complex and difficult to explain. After all, there is usually no &#8220;happy ending&#8221; for the resources of our everyday culture.<\/p>\n<h3>Biomaterials for new circle<\/h3>\n<p>Thanks to smart innovations in the materials sector, our linear understanding of materiality is slowly gaining momentum. We are increasingly thinking in closed cycles, including the biological cycle of life. Whether plastic-free fillers for upholstered furniture, fast-growing fiber materials as a wood substitute, or lab-grown cellulose as a textile alternative to leather: Biocircular materials not only offer opportunities to significantly reduce CO<sub>2<\/sub>-emissions they also help close product cycles.<\/p>\n<p>Diana Drewes from Haute Innovation Berlin talks about the latest developments in biomaterials, which will be showcased in the special show &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/events\/exhibition\/biocircular-materials\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Biocircular Materials<\/a>&#8221; in hall 6 of interzum. In particular, the use of secondary materials from agricultural and food industry waste streams has led to exciting innovations. Adhesives made from chicken feathers, filling materials made from fruit pits, and 3D-printed furniture made from citrus peels are just some of the highly exciting biomaterials driving the next major transformation.<\/p>\n<p>Program of interzum trend stage: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.interzum.com\/de\/events\/stages\/interzum-trend-stage\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.interzum.com<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][uncode_share layout=&#8221;multiple&#8221; bigger=&#8221;yes&#8221; no_back=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text uncode_shortcode_id=&#8221;136614&#8243;]image: 3D printed products and furniture from lemon peels (source: <a href=\"https:\/\/de.krilldesign.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Krill Design<\/a>)[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243; gutter_size=&#8221;3&#8243; overlay_alpha=&#8221;50&#8243; shift_x=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y=&#8221;0&#8243; shift_y_down=&#8221;0&#8243; z_index=&#8221;0&#8243; medium_width=&#8221;0&#8243; mobile_width=&#8221;0&#8243; sticky=&#8221;yes&#8221; width=&#8221;5\/12&#8243;][vc_separator sep_color=&#8221;color-458992&#8243; el_height=&#8221;3px&#8221;][uncode_block id=&#8221;100&#8243; inside_column=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>22 May 2025 \u00b7 interzum trend stage \u00b7 Koelnmesse<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Diana Drewes discusses the latest innovations in biomaterials that will promote a new understanding of circularity in the biological cycle for the design and furniture industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13345,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13341","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-lectures"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13341","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13341"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13341\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13453,"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13341\/revisions\/13453"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/13345"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13341"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13341"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.haute-innovation.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13341"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
