Fashion brand ANREALAGE announced a collaboration item of inkjet textile printer FOREARTH and waste fishing net recycling yarn MURON at Paris Fashion Week®
The fashion brand "ANREALAGE" has announced a collaboration item at the women's collection for Spring/Summer 2025 Paris Fashion Week®, which created with fabrics composed of "MURON" yarn made from recycled waste fishing nets, then printed on using Kyocera's inkjet textile printer "FOREARTH". MURON was developed by MORITO APPAREL CO., LTD.
This collection presented by "ANREALAGE" was produced with the concept of "visualizing the invisible power of wind". The wind makes waves on the surface of the water, creating currents that promote evaporation and form clouds. This causes rainfall and maintains the Earth's water cycle. Thus, the interaction between Earth's wind and water plays a very important role in the environment.
With this concept in mind, a collaboration between Kyocera’s printing technology of “FOREARTH” , which reduces water use by 99.98%, and “MURON” recycled yarn from used fishing nets, which helps resolve the issue of marine plastic pollution, was created as a special and sustainable fabric that was visualized in the “ANREALAGE” collection.

Recycled fishing net yarn "MURON"
Recycling of waste fishing nets and gear has become an important issue from the viewpoint of marine plastic pollution worldwide. According to a survey of marine litter conducted by the Ministry of the Environment in fiscal year 2016, discarded fishing nets and ropes account for approximately 40% of the total weight of plastic litter that washes up on shore in Japan.
With this in mind, Morito Apparel is focusing on recycling discarded fishing nets. "MURON" is made from 100% recycled waste fishing nets collected in Japan. By adding a chemical recycling process, they have succeeded in developing a high-quality and stable fiber.
Comment from "ANREALAGE" designer Mr. Kunihiko Morinaga
We thought that printing "FOREARTH" on waste fishing net fabric would be a sustainable approach to water. We believe that recycling discarded fishing nets into fiber will help protect the global environment and water. I feel an affinity between the social significance of "FOREARTH", which minimizes the use of water, and textiles made from recycled waste fishing nets.
There were concerns that textiles printed with conventional textile printers would become hard or not have the unique texture of the fabric. However, when I looked at the textile printed with "FOREARTH", it neatly reflected the shading created by the subtle unevenness, and I was very impressed that the material was light, and that waste fishing nets were reborn in this way and existed anew.
As fashion designers, I believe that the collection we present should be based on the future of the Earth and the future of the environment. This includes the use of recycled textiles from discarded fishing nets in a fashion context, as well as the use of "FOREARTH" printing technology. However, if only one brand uses this, it will not lead to a big movement in the future. I hope that not only ANREALAGE but also many brands and people involved in fashion will take notice and adopt it.
