Updates from the Philippine Textile Research Institute, Department of Science and Technology
Rooted in the rich textile heritage of Aklan, La Herminia Weaving and Arts Incorporated has spent nearly three decades preserving the art of piña handloom weaving while championing the possibilities of indigenous fibers and Filipino craftsmanship. Recognized for its role in sustaining Aklan's piña weaving tradition.
What begins as a pineapple leaf or a strand of abaca in the Philippines is now being turned into fashion in Milan, bringing Philippine textile innovation closer to global markets and creating new opportunities across the value chain, from farmers and weavers to manufacturers.
A multi-sector partnership among the Department of Science and Technology - Philippine Textile Research Institute (DOST-PTRI), Shell Pilipinas Corporation, and SoFA Design Institute is advancing circular-design education by combining textile science, industry expertise, and design education to promote sustainable, innovative reuse of textiles.

Mga update mula sa Philippine Textile Research Institute, Department of Science and Technology
Nag-ugat sa mayamang pamana ng tela ng Aklan, ang La Herminia Weaving and Arts Incorporated ay halos tatlong dekada nang pinapanatili ang sining ng piña handloom weaving habang itinataguyod ang mga kakayahan ng mga katutubong hibla at craftsmanship ng mga Pilipino. Kinilala sa papel nito sa pagpapanatili ng tradisyon ng paghahabi ng piña sa Aklan.
Ang nagsisimula bilang dahon ng pinya o hibla ng abaca sa Philippines ay ginagawa na ngayong fashion sa Milan, na naglalapit sa inobasyon ng tela ng Philippines sa mga pandaigdigang merkado at lumilikha ng mga bagong oportunidad sa buong value chain, mula sa mga magsasaka at manghahabi hanggang sa mga manufacturer.
Ang multi-sector partnership sa pagitan ng Department of Science and Technology - Philippine Textile Research Institute (DOST-PTRI), Shell Pilipinas Corporation, at SoFA Design Institute ay nagsusulong ng circular-design education sa pamamagitan ng pagsasama ng textile science, kaalaman ng industriya, at edukasyon sa disenyo upang itaguyod ang sustainable at makabagong muling paggamit ng mga tela.
