Agricultural Waste → Technical Textile Fibre

Banana-stem waste, engineered into spin-ready fibre for global mills.

Chroma Eco standardizes agricultural byproduct into graded, lab-tested natural fibre — sourced across Tamil Nadu, tested to SITRA NABL standards, and shipped export-ready from Chennai.

GRADE A · COMBED LOT CHROMA-BF-G1 A B C
Grade A combed fibre — three commercial formats
Sheath Sourcing
Middle Sheath Band

Harvested exclusively from the middle sheath band for maximum cellulose yield and spinnable elongation.

Moisture Protocol
< 12.0% Regain

Field-verified with digital pin sensors before moisture-barrier baling to prevent fungal degradation in transit.

Regulatory Standing
EU REACH Ready

100% mechanical extraction with bio-enzymatic rinsing — zero added resins, binders, or synthetic coatings.

Why Buyers Switch

A sourcing story your customers will actually believe.

Cotton and viscose supply chains carry land, water, and chemical footprints buyers are under growing pressure to disclose. Chroma Eco fibre comes from banana biomass that's already being grown for fruit — giving you a genuinely circular input, not a marketing claim.

01

No land-use trade-off

Zero dedicated acreage. The fibre rides on cultivation that's happening anyway, so it doesn't compete with food crops.

02

No added water cost

No incremental irrigation for the fibre itself.

03

A cleaner waste stream

Pseudostems are otherwise burned as field waste. Sourcing from us diverts that biomass into a sellable material instead.
