NOOSA® for Manufacturers

At NOOSA®, we manufacture bio-based fibers and yarns, designed to be seamlessly integrated into your established production processes. Our innovative materials can be recycled at the end of their life, providing a convenient solution for your manufacturing needs in line with the demand for circularity.

Looking for more circularity

Discover NOOSA®

Today, textile manufacturers are confronted with many challenges, from environmental concerns to meeting regulatory compliance and traceability in their supply chain. Consumption of clothing and footwear is expected to increase by 63% by 2030, so let’s make them better together.

To transition away from fossil-based materials while maintaining performance, NOOSA® emerges as a viable option, ensuring both longevity and circularity of your products. This shift will not only help you reduce your carbon footprint and increase transparency but also offer solutions to your customers seeking circular alternatives. Additionally, NOOSA® presents an opportunity to add value to your textile waste — a vital consideration given that currently less than 1% is repurposed, often due to the lack of recycling options for blended fabrics.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the difference between PLA and NOOSA® PLA?
    Just as there are significant differences in quality between commodity cotton and premium long-staple cotton, not all PLA fibers perform the same. Generic PLA fibers exist on the market, but most of them are not optimized for textile applications, industrial washing conditions, or end-of-life recovery. NOOSA® has developed deep expertise in tailoring PLA specifically for textiles - in terms of fiber engineering, processing support, and circularity. The key differentiator is NOOCYCLE®, our patented recycling technology: NOOSA® PLA is the only textile fiber guaranteed to be 100% recycled back into virgin-quality fiber, endlessly. No performance loss. No downcycling. A true closed loop.
  • What are the characteristics of NOOSA® PLA in terms of elongation, tenacity, and shrinkage?
    We provide a full technical data sheet for each product on demand. Please contact us to receive the specifications relevant to your application. It shows a higher elongation than standard polyester, a lower tenacity than polyester but still higher than cotton.
  • Are there certification or traceability measures to ensure GMO-free sourcing?
    Yes. NOOSA® holds GMO-free certifications to ensure full transparency and traceability in sourcing. We primarily use sugar from by-products of corn or sugarcane production, with plans to diversify feedstocks further. By 2028, we will be able to use sugar from French wheat. We can provide feedstock traceability certifications (biobased, GMO-free, ISCC+), product certifications (Oekotex, ISO), and company-level B Corp certification on request.
  • How is NOOSA® PLA fiber processed?
    We provide dedicated technical support services, tailored to optimize results at every stage of the manufacturing process - from yarn spinning to dyeing to thermosetting. Our team works directly with textile partners to ensure consistent quality and performance throughout the production chain.
