The main focus of denim designers is to make a new garment look old. Enzymes can produce great results, without polluting the environment. In 1952 Carlsberg mapped a protein degrading enzyme for the first time. We shared this discovery with the world, kickstarting groundbreaking progress in technology and industry.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I like denim. It\u2019s very democratic. Anybody that wears jeans doesn\u2019t look like a poor guy or a rich guy. They can be used by anybody.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m Piero Turk and I\u2019m a denim designer. Denim designer means that I work in all the areas of the denim. I work with denim mills to develop fabrics. I work with laundries to develop washes. I work with brands to develop their collections.<\/span><\/p>\n

I live in Treviso. It\u2019s a small village in North East of Italy. Living in Treviso is not bad \u2013 because I\u2019m not really always in Treviso. I travel all around the world for my work. I like that when I come back home it\u2019s not stressful at all \u2013 but honestly it\u2019s a bit boring.<\/span><\/p>\n

When the story of garment treatment started \u2013 we started using simple techniques, adding chlorine bleach to the water \u2013 to make the pant lighter. Then adding stones \u2013 then spraying sand or chemicals in some areas to have contrast on the pant.<\/span><\/p>\n

This is where I develop all my new ideas \u2013 about finishing and different treatments on the denims. All of the different treatments and technologies and techniques \u2013 are used just for one thing. To make a new pant look like an old pant. Of course the big problem that the industry is trying to avoid \u2013 is polluting. With enzymes you avoid this. The discovery of enzymes has made a big change in the denim world. You spray the enzyme on the garment. The technology is really good \u2013 because with spraying the enzymes you can save a lot of water. Using enzymes you more or less have the same effect as with stones \u2013 and it means polluting much less.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
