OUR COLLABORATION WITH PANASONIC
Working closely with Panasonic, ATW80F will be launching a series of fabric collaborations, beginning with beautiful installations at CES (Consumer Electronic Show) in Las Vegas January 2024. Beginning with fabric studios in Japan and Mexico, we are working globally to intricately weave fabrics throughout our collaboration.
Since 2021, Panasonic has sponsored a parternship with LUMIX ambassador Jamie House to visually document fabrics across the world through captivating photographs and videos. Her images help us to feel immersed in the stories of the fabrics, lives of their makers and the positive impacts these crafts are having on the world.

Supporting the UN SDGs
At ATW80Fabrics we support UN sustainability goals by fostering connections between plastic-free fabrics and planetary health. We elevate mindful makers who prioritize restorative practices that sequester carbon, enrich soil and water health, safeguard the biodiversity of ocean and land ecosystems, and respect the lives of workers.
