May 2, 2016 | By Tess

One of our favorite contemporary designers, Dutch-born Iris van Herpen, has made a name for herself in both the fashion and tech worlds by expertly combining handcrafting couture techniques with modern technologies such as 3D printing and laser cutting. The first designer to have sent a 3D printed dress down the runway in 2010, van Herpen has consistently wowed us with her designs and has been gaining recognition in more mainstream fashion media outlets. Recently, in an with fashion magazine The Cut, Iris van Herpen explained some of her design philosophies as well as how she herself fits in to the fashion and tech worlds.

A pioneer of 3D printed high fashion garments, van Herpen has maintained that she sees herself as a part of the handcrafted tradition of couture, which implies hand-made, made-to-measure garments. Her approach, as she explains it, is particularly interesting as she sees technologies like 3D printing as a sort of extension of her hand, as a means to producing couture. She says, "Technology, for me, is just a tool. The laser cutter or the 3D printer-to me it's equal to my hands or the hands of my team."

Of course, if you are familiar with Iris van Herpen's work, you might question this when thinking of her installation with Game of Thrones actress Gwendoline Christie, in which actual robotic arms 3D knitted a dress onto her. Even these robots, however were based on traditional lacemaking techniques and the hands that made them initially, tying them back to the handcrafted practice.

Iris van Herpen, who studied fashion design at the ArtEZ Institute of the Arts Arnhem, has explored many themes in her work: from crystalline forms, organic forms, , magnetic reactions, to lucidity in her most recent collection, Lucid. Currently, she is working with a new material called dragon skin, a high performance silicone material used primarily to simulate skin for movie effects. The dragon skin dress, which requires close attention and can be easily ruined-van Herpen laments a nearly finished version of the dress which was ruined during the application of its last layer of silicon-is made up of thousands of wave-like pieces which were laser cut and molded from a 3D printer. The pieces were hand placed onto the dress, which was then lined with a layer of silk and cotton to make it more comfortable for the wearer. Even the dress' mannequin had to be specially made from clay and coated in dragon skin to properly create the dress over it.

The dress, which took months to complete, will be exhibited alongside other innovative fashion pieces (some of them her own) at the upcoming Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology exhibit which will open May 5th at the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. The exhibition's curator Andrew Bolton said of van Herpen, "She's like the Marie Curie of fashion".

The Dutch designer, who has collaborated with a number of scientists, architects, and tech experts to create her futuristic and innovative pieces, will no doubt continue her astonishing work, as she reportedly even has her eye on using a proto-invisibility material that is currently being patented by the U.S. military.

In March 2013, new research from the University of Southampton was published in Environmental Science & Technology, which raised a question mark over how safe ultrafine dust is to workers and regular travellers on the London Underground.

The Southampton team - which included the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) - collected ultrafine airborne dust (PM0.1) from a mainline underground station underneath an airport in Europe, as well as larger particles: coarse PM10 (which have a diameter of ten micrometres or less) and ?ne PM2.5 (which have a diameter of 2.5 micrometres or less).

"The ultrafine dust was at least as rich in metals as the larger dust particles and, therefore, taken together with their increased surface area to volume ratio, it is of potential significance in understanding the risks of working and travelling in the underground," said Matt Loxham, PhD student at the University of Southampton, and part of the study's research team.

"These tiny dust particles have the potential to penetrate the lungs and the body more easily, posing a risk to someone's health."

According to the researchers, while coarse dust is deposited in the conducting airways of the body (such as nasal passages and bronchi) and the fine dust is able to reach the bronchioles (smaller airways), the ultrafine dust can reach the deepest areas of the lungs and into the alveoli.

They concluded that there is evidence that ultrafine dust can evade the protective barrier lining the airways (the epithelium), and enter underlying tissue and the circulation, meaning that the toxicity of ultrafine particles may not be limited to the airways, but may involve the cardiovascular system, liver, brain and kidneys.

The Trade Union Congress (TUC) confirms in its Dust in the Workplace report that "the two most serious health problems caused by dust are cancers of the lungs, throat and nose, and other lung conditions called Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) that includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema."

The Health and Safety Executive (HSE), estimates that there are more than a million individuals that currently have the disease in the UK and there are more than 25,000 deaths each year. It states that around 15% of COPD cases are likely to be work related.

A need for up-to-date advice

"The ultrafine dust can reach the deepest areas of the lungs and into the alveoli."

Despite being questioned about the new research from Southampton University, Transport for London is staunchly adamant that there is no reason to be concerned about the dust levels in the Underground.

"It is clearly wrong to attempt to draw any conclusions about London Underground from this new research that studies one station elsewhere in Europe," said Howard Collins, chief operating officer of London Underground.

"We have carried out monitoring of dust levels on the Tube for many years to re-assure our passengers and staff. This is supported by an independent report from the Institute of Occupational Medicine, which concluded tunnel dust on London Underground is highly unlikely to be dangerous."

Simon Birkett, founder and director of Clean Air in London - a not-for-profit organisation that is dedicated to decreasing the level of pollution in London and ensuring air quality laws are enforced - believes that up-to-date, relevant warnings are required to protect passengers' and workers' health.

"Scientific evidence is increasingly showing there are health risks from short or long-term exposure to fine airborne particles with the data strongly suggesting these effects have no threshold down to fairly low levels," he said. "The Mayor says 'tube dust' is 'safe' - an absolute word - for staff and customers, referring to workplace exposure limits and very out-of-date scientific advice."

The report from the Institute of Occupational Medicine (IOM), which was published in December 2003, was carried out in collaboration with the Universities of Aberdeen and Edinburgh.

Measurements from Holland Park station (Central Line), Hampstead station (Northern Line) and Oxford Circus station (Victoria Line) were made throughout January 2003 and samples of PM2.5, PM10 and PM3.5 were taken.

According to Transport for London, the report concluded that dust on the Underground is "highly unlikely to cause serious damage to the health of London Underground workers", "highly unlikely to be damaging to the travelling public" and that "there is no need for more research at the moment".

IOM confirms unsafe dust limits

The current UK limit as controlled by COSHH (Control of Substances Hazardous to Health) - which includes dust as hazardous when present at a concentration in air equal to or greater than ten mg/m³ of inhalable dust or four mg/m³ - is calculated via a formula that takes into account the length of time that a person is exposed, so it is the equivalent of an eight-hour day. This is called the eight-hour TWA (time weighted average).

"Transport for London is staunchly adamant that there is no reason to be concerned about the dust levels in the Underground."

If any worker is exposed above these levels employers are meant to take action to remove the risk, but in 2011 the TUC produced a report, Dust in the Workplace, which stated that there is now "clear scientific evidence which suggests the current UK limits for inhalable and respirable dust of ten mg/m³ and four mg/m³ respectively should be much lower".

This view is supported by the IOM, as its press release of 5 May 2011 stated: "The current British limit values for respirable and inhalable dust (four and ten mg/m3, respectively) are unsafe and it would be prudent to reduce exposures as far below these limits as is reasonably practicable."

It then recommended: "Until safe limits are put in place, employers should aim to keep exposure to respirable dust below one mg/m3 and inhalable dust below five mg/m3".

The TUC goes on to recommend a precautionary dust standard of 2.5 mg/m³ and one mg/m³ for inhalable and respirable dust respectively.

Health warnings required

One of the most concerning issues raised by the new research from Southampton University is that ultrafine dust (PM0.1) was at least as rich in metals as the larger dust particles and that particles of this size are currently unregulated.

"The TUC goes on to recommend a precautionary dust standard of 2.5 mg/m³ and one mg/m³ for inhalable and respirable dust."

While conclusions about London Underground's air quality cannot be drawn from research from another underground station in Europe - Loxham says there are "large differences in airborne particle concentrations across different underground railway networks" caused by a number of different factors, such as ventilation and braking systems, wheel type and system age - the report could mean that PM0.1 particles are tested in the future.

Loxham believes the reason they are not currently regulated is due to the "relative infancy of research on the potential health effects of PM0.1 compared to PM10 and PM2.5".

He said: "In our study, although PM0.1 were the least-represented PM fraction in terms of mass, their mass concentration nonetheless exceeded World Health Organisation 24-hour limits for both PM10 and PM2.5 [24 hour average particle exposure of 50 and 25 mg/m3 for PM10 and PM2.5, respectively], while we found underground PM0.1 to be at least as rich in transition metals as PM10 and PM2.5."

While there is much previously published work suggesting the air quality in environments such as steel mills or welding plants, which are rich in airborne metals can impact negatively on health, little research has been carried into the effects of working in an underground railway station - a similarly metal-rich environment.

"Almost 1.2 billion journeys are made per year on the London Underground and the high level of mechanical activity in underground railways, along with very high temperatures, is key in the generation of this metal-rich dust," said Loxham.

"The number of people likely to be exposed means that more studies into the effects of particulate matter in the underground railway environment are needed, as well as examining how the levels of dust and duration of exposure might translate to effects on health."

For Birkett, while further research is important, what is essential is the issuing of "updated, independent monitoring and scientific advice about the potential health risks of dangerous airborne particles in the London Underground".

"We need warnings now for the most vulnerable people and action to reduce sharply levels of 'tube dust' for staff and the travelling public," he said.

Dust-cleaning London tube train delayed until 2017

Dust-cleaning London tube train delayed until 2017

The introduction of a London tube train specially designed to remove dust has been delayed until 2017 or later in order to allow for the removal of asbestos-containing material from the Undergound rail network, according to information obtained by campaign group Clean Air in London (CAL).
The Tunnel Cleaning Train includes a carriage with large vacuum nozzles that clean the tube tunnel as the train passes through. It had previously been slated for introduction on the Underground network in late 2013 in order to combat metal dust levels.

However, in March 2014 CAL lodged a Freedom of Information request to find why the project had seemingly been delayed, to which Transport for London (TfL) responded, citing 'supplier issues' and 'enabling works' to remove asbestos, which could cost in the region of £2-5 million.

Setting a new estimated date of 2017 or later for the train to be introduced, TfL said that the main reason for the delay was because it needed to remove asbestos-containing material on the Underground network which could be disturbed by the tube cleaning train, potentially releasing harmful asbestos fibres into the atmosphere.

Historically, TfL has recorded the location of asbestos-containing materials but has removed them "only when necessary".

But TfL said unless "certain classes" of asbestos-containing material (ACM) are removed from the Undergound, the tube cleaning train (TCT) would be "inoperable across 98% of the London Underground network", meaning the tube cleaning project would be "no longer viable".

The TfL response states: "ACM removal or encapsulation in the track bed is believed to be feasible, and would allow the TCT to clean the track bed over across roughly 66 percent of the network."

Initial estimates for this removal work, TfL states, suggest that it would cost in the region of £2-5 million and could take up to 18 months, although more detailed surveys are set to be carried out to determine the extent of the work needed.

The remaining 34% of the network where cleaning would be prohibited, TfL explains, would be those where there is "asbestos noise shelf and contaminated ballast", which are predominantly on the Central, Jubilee and Northern Lines - although work is also being undertaken to enable the TCT to operate in more areas.

TfL states: "A decision regarding the future of the Tunnel Cleaning Train project will be made once the cost and timescales associated with this ACM mitigation project are known. The first phase of the work to price the mitigation of ACMs is underway now."

TfL previously carried out research on the likely health effects of tunnel dust on staff with the help of the Institute of Occupational Medicine in 2003, after which it concluded that dust levels were 'highly unlikely' to cause serious damage to human health.

In addition, it said that monitoring of tube dust has shown that levels are below limits set by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

However, Clean Air in London, which previously called for more research into the health effects of tube dust in February 2013 ( see airqualitynews.com story), believes that tube dust is "not safe" and that the London Mayor is "relying on health advice which is hopelessly out of date".

CAL director Simon Birkett is therefore calling on the Mayor, Boris Johnson, to bring forward plans for the tube cleaning train.

He said: "CAL urges the Mayor to accelerate plans for the tube cleaning train and the asbestos removal or encapsulation and consider urgently, in parallel, other options to protect people such as better ventilation and filtration in passenger area."
