ISA TanTec To Launch COSM (Creation of Sustainable Materials) Division
16.10.2020 16:00:00 EEST | Business Wire | Press release
ISA TanTec has established a successful track record of entering market segments with numerous sustainable product innovations, including leather cutting, leather trims and leather laces for the footwear, Iuxury and apparel markets. To continue the momentum, the group invests into new innovative technologies and additional sustainable materials to meet its customers' needs in response to current market trends. ISA TanTec now announces the launch of COSM (Creation of Sustainable Materials) Division, which specializes in the development and production of additional sustainable products alongside its leather production. The first two materials to launch under the new division are HyphaLite and VeraLite. The HyphaLite will be available in Q1 2021 while the VeraLite will be available in Q2 2021.
“For more than 2 years, we have been investigating and researching with scientists to build these new sustainable materials along with our unique ISA leathers,” said Thomas Schneider, Executive Chairman of the ISA TanTec Group.
All COSM products are made by following ISA TanTec’s LITETM manufacturing processes minimizing carbon footprint, water and chemical consumption. The HyphaLite and VeraLite are made from mushroom, mycelium and other plant based materials which are biodegradable. Mushrooms unsuitable for human consumption are used for the production. Following the principle of the circular economy, waste which occurs during the production of the materials, included but not limited to cutting waste, will be integrated back into the process.
“Mushrooms are an amazing, fast renewable natural organism. Due to its rapid growth, its feedstock availability is almost unlimited,” said Dr. Reiner Hengstmann, Vice President, Additional Materials of the ISA TanTec Group.
“In unprecedented times, we are paying even more attention and dedicating additional resources to innovation, creating a better future,” said Uwe Hutzler, Chief Executive Officer of the ISA TanTec Group.

Americhem Expands Aircraft Interior Portfolio with PFAS-Free Thermoplastic Platform Meeting 55/55 OSU, Low Smoke, and Low Toxicity Requirements4.3.2026 14:00:00 EET | Press release
Americhem is expanding its aircraft interior materials portfolio with ColorFast® SFT5500, a PFAS-free high-performance thermoplastic engineered to meet FAA 14 CFR 25.853, Appendix F, Part IV, 55/55 OSU heat release requirements while delivering low smoke and low toxicity characteristics for aircraft interior applications. PFAS-free thermoplastic systems capable of achieving 55/55 OSU performance while maintaining low smoke and low toxicity characteristics remain limited in the aerospace market. ColorFast® SFT5500 addresses this need with demonstrated 55/55 OSU heat release performance, low smoke emission characteristics, and low flaming-mode toxicity performance in a high-performance thermoplastic platform designed specifically for injection-molded interior components. Aircraft interior thermoplastics must meet stringent fire standards while maintaining durability, thermal stability, and process consistency. As legacy fluorinated material systems face increasing regulatory scrutiny, ma
NETSCOUT Reveals Qualitative Shifts in DDoS Attack Sophistication, Infrastructure Capacity, and Threat Actor Capabilities4.3.2026 13:05:00 EET | Press release
NETSCOUT® SYSTEMS, INC. (NASDAQ: NTCT), today released its second half of the year 2025 Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Threat Intelligence Report, revealing sophisticated attacker collaboration, resilient botnets, and compromised IoT infrastructure that drove more than eight million DDoS attacks worldwide – some as large as 30 terabits per second (Tbps) – marking a new era of hyper-scale, coordinated threat activity that continues to outpace global takedown efforts. Meanwhile, the accelerating growth of DDoS-for-hire services is empowering a broader range of threat actors, intensifying operational risk to digitally connected organizations and enterprises. Implications for security professionals extend far beyond volumetric concerns and include reconnaissance and adaptive evasion which challenge traditional defense paradigms. Organizations must match adversarial innovation with intelligent, autonomous defenses, or risk operational disruption at levels previously considered theoret
