This volume, the second in a set of two, provides a variety of cases on the use of natural fibres in sustainable textile manufacture. The first volume covers fibres from stems from a variety of plants such as flax, jute, sisal, hemp, and nettle. This second volume deals with fibres from leaves, fruits, bark, and others. Chapters here cover issues such as how these fibres can be used to sustainably create fabric, the socioeconomic value of these fibres, and remediation of byproducts from the use of these fibres.
