Evrnu purifies cotton garment waste, converts it to a pulp, and extrudes it as a pristine new fiber for the creation of premium textiles. It is finer than silk and stronger than cotton. Evrnu gives an upgrade to something we already need and want – beautiful clothing – while cutting greenhouse gases in half compared to our best alternatives.
The Process
First, Evrnu strips dyes and other contaminants from cotton textile garment waste. Next they pulp the cotton, breaking it down to its constituent fiber molecules. These fibers are then recombined and extruded as a new pristine fiber, which can be engineered to custom specifications, diameters, and cross-sectional shapes.
This customization process allows Evrnu to engineer fibers that can create garments as soft as your go-to t-shirt or as durable as your favorite pair of jeans. And being able to cater to such a wide variety of performance expectations makes bio-based fibers not just good for the planet but an exciting field to be pioneering.
Evrnu makes a product that not only looks good, feels great, and holds color beautifully, but because it’s a solution that makes an integrated supply system possible.
