Kintra Fibers

Kintra Fibers is a materials science company based in Brooklyn, New York, founded in 2018.

The company focuses on creating sustainable, bio-based, and biodegradable textile solutions for the apparel and fashion industry. Its flagship product is a proprietary polyester that is 100% bio-based and biodegradable, providing a cost-effective alternative to traditional petroleum-based textiles like PET and Nylon. Kintra Fibers operates with a "cradle-to-cradle" approach, ensuring that its materials minimize environmental impact throughout their lifecycle. The company offers a plug-and-play resin and fiber system that integrates seamlessly into existing manufacturing processes, allowing for the production of soft, strong, and stretchable yarns that naturally degrade in aerobic environments. This innovation significantly reduces emissions and energy use compared to conventional synthetics, supporting circular fashion principles and addressing microfiber pollution. Kintra Fibers collaborates with leading fashion brands and industry partners to advance sustainable textile solutions.
