POND Cycle TYPE: Bio-Based SOURCE: Sugar Cane, Grass, Corn
Pond Cycle represents a breakthrough in bioplastic technology, harnessing the power of corn, sugar cane, and grass to produce resilient resins that outperform traditional oil-based plastics. Not only does Pond Cycle offer superior performance, but it also actively sequesters CO2, making it a truly sustainable alternative to conventional plastics. FUN FACT: Pond Cycle fibers are 100% natural in orgin and completely biodegradable Product Forecast: Flatwovens
Re-Root-Tex TYPE: Natural Plant Fiber SOURCE: Pineapple Waster
A pineapple waste innovation that uses agricultural waste from pineapple farming and turns it into fibers. These fibers have a reduced water use and CO2 consumption, as the plant is not specifically grown for fiber production - the plant would usually be incinerated or go to landfill. FUN FACT: Since 2020 they have used 1,018,942kg pineapple leaves to produce fiber that would have otherwise been burned or ended up in a landfill, producing CO2 and CH4 Product Forecast: beach towels
Protecht Fresh TYPE: Plant-Based Topical SOURCE: Castor Seed Oil
Protecht Fresh uses a proprietary odor absorption technology, derived from regenerative castor seed oil to contain unwanted odors. When textiles are washed, Protecht Fresh releases the odors it had captured and "re-sets" its absorption capabilities. FUN FACT: Protecht Fresh has 78% bio-based content. The castor seed is extremely efficient with resources and has the ability to capture carbon and regenerate soil health.
Product Forecast: beach, kids, kitchen and more
Lotus TYPE: Natural Plant Fiber SOURCE: Lotus Leaves
The lotus fiber is a regenerated cellulosic using lotus leaves, seeds and stems to make staple fibers. It promotes many wellness benefits due to its soft and light nature. It is rich in 16 amino acids giving it natural moisturizing and quick drying attributes. FUN FACT: Unlike other plant fibers, lotus requires little more than existing ponds and lakes to grown, eliminating need for fertilizing and irrigation.
Product Forecast: Sheets, towels and robes
Naia Renew TYPE: Circular Fiber SOURCE: Sustainably sourced wood/ recycled synthetic waste material
Naia Renew helps solves one of the textile industry's biggest issues: Developing circularity at scale. Produced from 60% sustainably sourced wood pulp and 40% certified recycled waste material, Naia Renew creates value from hard-to-recycle waste that would otherwise go into landfills. FUN FACT:
Much of Naia's hard-to-recycle waste comes from discarded carpet waste
Product Forecast: towels and sheets
Tex2Tex TYPE: Circular Fiber SOURCE: Worn-out clothes and production waste
Tex2Tex addresses the fashion industry's waste problem and uses an underutilized waste stream to create a low impact, circular recycled polyester fiber. Tex2Tex prices are competitive with virgin poly and bottle RPET, scalable and offer reduced environmental impact compared to virgin cotton through energy savings, CO2 reduction and water savings FUN FACT: Bottle Flake RPET represents 99% of the RPET Market. The fashion industry needs to move past downcycled single-use plastics and go Beyond BottlesTM.
