Fibres from agricultural residu needs no land, no water, no energy and no CO2 for them to grow Fibres from agricultural residu are more sustainable than an equivalent organic fibre as they have negative carbon footprint Fibres from agricultural residu are more strong, absorbent and long lasting and needs less water and energy for washing

Our technology makes fibres from agricultural waste, in order to make yarns and fabrics. All conventional textile fibres require a lot of water, energy, CO2, land, harmful chemicals and petroleum for production. By using agro residu fibre, we propose an alternative natural fibre , without the use of any chemical, without alterting the molecular chemistry (no viscose) and without changing much on the textile operational level but enhancing user comfort for the fashion world and providing a textile that has negative carbon footprint. Finnaly the use of agrocultural waste avoids the burning and dumping of the same. We make yarn and fabrics from banana tree fiber. We convert the banana tree trunk (pseudostem), which is an agricultural residue, into raw fiber and than we softened it using a zero chemical process. Softened fiber is then spun into a yarn which is use in apparel, shoes, bags and various other textile needs. Our patent pending technology doesnt use any chemical, does not alters the molecular chemistry of the fibre.
