Soft Strength

As the textile and nonwoven industries seek to reduce their environmental footprint without compromising performance, Futeon™ PLA is emerging as a material of choice for fiber and nonwoven applications. Its renewable origin, low carbon footprint, and compatibility with a wide range of processing technologies make it a smart solution for manufacturers looking to innovate responsibly.

Whether used in hygiene products, filtration systems, or textile blends, Futeon™ PLA brings together softness, strength, and sustainability, enabling the creation of next-generation materials.

What Sets Futeon™ PLA Apart

Higher resistance to bacterial proliferation compared to other traditional plastics used in textiles, ideal for contact with sensitive skins

Derived from renewable resources, Futeon™ helps reduce the environmental impact and lowers CO₂ emissions compared to fossil-based plastics

Futeon™ can be blended with other biopolymers to tailor its properties for specific applications, and can also be combined with cotton, wool, or cellulose for 100% biobased, high-performance solutions

Breathable for comfort and performance, with low odor retention 

Futeon™ PLA can also be industrially composted: ideal for specific applications with high organic content (e.g. diapers, tea bags…)

Lower flammability than in other traditional plastics used in textiles

Textiles are notoriously difficult to recycle, notably due to mixed materials. Futeon™ PLA overcomes these challenges through chemical recycling, enabling circularity where traditional fibers fall short

Soft to the touch and hypoallergenic, Futeon™ is ideal for skin-contact applications like personal care, hygiene, and apparel
