"Wearable Collagen" – Development of Natural Fiber "FILAGEN" Utilizing Fish Scales
In 2019, Steve Hwang, the current representative who has been in the textile industry for many years, a Thai company that developed collagen fibers, and companies in China and Taiwan responsible for thread and fabric development and production, jointly established FILAGEN Global in Korea. They gained attention with their flagship product, a fiber called "Wearable Collagen," known as "FILAGEN."
Recently, as FILAGEN has been expanding in Europe, America, and Asia, it has also started to be introduced gradually in Japan. We spoke with Ken Miyasaka, the agent in charge of FILAGEN's expansion in Japan, about what FILAGEN is, its functions, and its future development.
