Local resources can provide industrial production opportunities to im-prove processes while enhancing biodi-versity and the use of raw materials. This research profiles currently underused bast plant fibres for environmentally sound textile applications in architecture – a sector heavily reliant on non-renewable resources – by comparing their technical properties and environmental impacts to support material selection. It also reconstructs production scenarios by evaluating fibre material typologies, their processability in textile-based building materials, and the existing fibre processing and textile manufacturing infrastructure.

Abstract

Local resources can provide industrial production opportunities to im-prove processes while enhancing biodi-versity and the use of raw materials. This research profiles currently underused bast plant fibres for environmentally sound textile applications in architecture – a sector heavily reliant on non-renewable resources – by comparing their technical properties and environmental impacts to support material selection. It also reconstructs production scenarios by evaluating fibre material typologies, their processability in textile-based building materials, and the existing fibre processing and textile manufacturing infrastructure.
