We are making the most out of what already exists: diverting banana stems from
being burned & wasted.
3.2 Billion Plants
Less Emissions
Less Water Usage
17 Million mTonnes
Less Waste
More Living

We believe we can help the planet by feeding the alternative materials market at a global scale.

We identified banana fiber to be one of the most sustainable fibers to date. Limited by the economics of fiber extraction, we are thinking about this problem differently. What we have set out to do is extract more fiber and refine it to a higher quality so we can compete with not just bast fibers, but cotton and synthetics too. Through our approach, we are working from soil to textile, and working with farmers and farm workers.
When we win, the world wins.
