Paris, Grand Palais - France
At ChangeNOW 2026, ER Ocean Recherche unveiled SeiFibre™, its new marine-based textile fibre, within the iconic Grand Palais — a venue that has welcomed us on several meaningful occasions over the past years, and to which we feel a particular attachment.
Beyond this milestone, ChangeNOW represents a vision we deeply share: environmental challenges are too often perceived as natural disasters, when they are, at their core, cultural crises — rooted in the gradual loss of intergenerational knowledge and our connection to the natural world. By bringing together science, craftsmanship and collective intelligence, we believe we can help restore that connection and shape a different future, together.
SeiFibre™ marks a decisive step towards the industrialisation of next-generation textiles. Derived from algae through a proprietary wet-spinning process, the fibre is transformed into yarns and fabrics. With SeiFibre™, ER Ocean Recherche is bridging the gap between laboratory innovation and industrial-scale production
