YES! PrimaLoft® Bio™ is already available from several locations worldwide, both virgin and recycled from a controlled supply chain. There is full capacity and delivery guarantee. And that’s why we can start fixing polyester right now.

Before initiating full production, a sample is sent to 3rd party lab for an accelerated test that measures the initial behavior of the fiber. After the QC test for up to 90 days, we can verify that the technology works, and the staple fibers are approved.

A long range of well-known brands within outdoor garments have already implemented PrimaLoft® Bio™ in their fabrics and insulation, from Jack Wolfskin, Maloja and Katmandu to 4F and Icebug.

PrimaLoft® Bio™ can be added toany type of polyester and fabric fiber, from wadding, filtration, and automotive to acoustics, medical, and hygiene products.

No, PrimaLoft® Bio™ only biodegrades in environments with naturally occurring microbes, such as landfills, oceans, and wastewater. PrimaLoft® Bio™ comes in normal bales and has a normal shelf life with no need for special care or treatment during storage and transportation.

Yes, we are already commercial with BICO (low melting fibers), solid, and hollow fibers – and have no capacity issues.

No, PrimaLoft® Bio™ has the same characteristics and performance as regular PET fibers with the same output and same whiteness, and it blends well with natural fibers.

Again, it’s a no. PrimaLoft® Bio™ fibers in products do not biodegrade during usage. Only microplastics that leave products ending up in landfills or oceans will biodegrade, so there really is no special care required.

Polyester is a polymer, and therefore the end product could be considered as a “plastic”. This means that different measures from Single-Use Plastic Directive can be applied to your product.

Yes, PrimaLoft® Bio™ can be chemically recycled and fits perfectly in a circular lifespan, and PrimaLoft® Bio™ maintain a 95% yield rate through the chemical recycling process.

Polyester is a complex molecule that naturally occuring microbes have a hard time digesting, why standard polyester does not biodegrade. PrimaLoft® BioTM optimizes the polyester or fabric fiber with a simple sugar, making the fibers easier and more pleasant for microbes to digest. Essentially, we make your fiber a Boston Cream Donut for microbes.
