Welcome, I am Sudeep Motupelli Rao, lead inventor of Ciclo, a sustainable textile technology.

歡迎，我是蘇迪普-莫圖佩利-拉奧（Sudeep Motupelli Rao），可持續紡織技術 Ciclo 的主要發明人。

Synthetic materials like polyester and nylon are thermoplastics used widely in textiles for their durability, high performance, easy care and affordability.

合成材料（如聚酯和尼龍）是一種熱塑性塑膠，因其耐用、高性能、易打理和經濟實惠而被廣泛應用於紡織品中。

But when we make these textiles, wear and wash them, tiny microfiber fragments are shed.

但是，當我們製作、穿著和清洗這些紡織品時，細小的超細纖維碎片就會脫落。

These fragments have become a major environmental pollutant.

這些碎片已成為主要的環境汙染物。

Because these fibers are made from durable plastic materials, they cannot get broken down by natural microorganisms.

由於這些纖維由耐用的塑膠材料製成，是以不會被自然微生物分解。

So they persist in the environment, causing harm to the food chain.

是以，它們會在環境中持續存在，對食物鏈造成危害。

What's the Ciclo solution?

Ciclo 解決方案是什麼？

Ciclo technology solves this problem by transforming the chemical nature and structure of these materials, making them attractive to microbes.

Ciclo 技術通過改變這些材料的化學性質和結構，使其對微生物具有吸引力，從而解決了這一問題。

Ciclo gets permanently embedded during the production of polyester and nylon, whether it's virgin or recycled.

在聚酯和尼龍的生產過程中，無論是原生的還是回收的，Ciclo 都會被永久地嵌入其中。

Thankfully, adding Ciclo to polyester and nylon does not compromise the durability or technical characteristics of the product.

值得慶幸的是，在滌綸和尼龍中添加 Ciclo 不會影響產品的耐用性或技術特性。

How does Ciclo work?

Ciclo 如何運作？

Ciclo fibers contain biophilic active ingredients, which attract microbes and provide them with nutrients and access points.

Ciclo 纖維含有親生物活性成分，能吸引微生物併為其提供營養和進入點。

These colonies grow as they create powerful microenvironments to break down and digest all the material.

這些菌落在生長過程中創造了強大的微環境來分解和消化所有物質。

The microbes eat the carbon in these materials for energy and to build their cell mass, like all living things.

和所有生物一樣，微生物吃這些材料中的碳來獲取能量，並構建自己的細胞團。

What remains are just natural elements like biogas and biomass.

剩下的只是沼氣和生物質等自然元素。

How is Ciclo tested?

如何檢測 Ciclo？

Ciclo is tested at independent third-party labs for chemical safety with eco-passport certification by Oikotex, for efficacy using global standard tests such as ASTM and ISO methods, and for ecotoxicity to ensure environmental safety.

Ciclo 由獨立的第三方實驗室進行化學安全性測試，並獲得 Oikotex 的生態護照認證；使用 ASTM 和 ISO 方法等全球標準測試功效；以及生態毒性測試，以確保環境安全。

So, Ciclo delivers the same high-performance, quality product, but with a better environmental footprint.

是以，Ciclo 提供的是同樣高性能、高質量的產品，但對環境的影響更大。
