TRL

Hemp-based cellulosic solution to unsustainable additives for end products.

Raising awareness for the half-hidden word 'cellulose' in everyday products, from fillers & stabilizers to thickeners & similar additives - aiming for total, sustainable transparency.

"Our goal is to have every American knowingly or unknowingly touch our product 9 times a day in various materials, including food, textiles, plastics & composites."

Properties

Offering both food and non-food cellulosic additives.

Specific quantities available to query.

Higher degree of whiteness than conventional hemp pulp.

Increases strength, stiffness & thermal performance for structural non-food application.

Engineered Organic Fibers™ for non-food applications:

NINIX™ (short fiber), TENSIX™ (long fiber, combined with glass & more demanding mixtures), HYIX™ (long fiber, incorporated into conventional woven & knit), HYOTHREAD™ (long, for non-wovens - polypropylene & natural), 9CELL™ (long fiber, improved hydrophobic properties & white color grading), CELLUXE™ (short fiber, industrial & commercial), HYOCELL™ (short fiber, bioplastic additive)

Lite Engineered Organic Fibers™ for food, cosmetics, and composite additives in consumer products:

LEOF™ (short fiber, volume & bulk to food ingredients), CELLUSIX™ (short fiber, anti-caking applications), 9CARB™ (short fiber, gel paste), CARBIX™ (short fiber, more air whip for cream & sauces), VIBEIX™ (short fiber, fiber supplements for drinks), HYCHOW™ (short fiber, pet care - free pet food of wood filler!)

Cyclability

Sustainable engineering solutions.

100% naturally based fibre polymers.

Hemp is biodegradable and uses little water to grow. Additionally, it yields more usable fibers than woods could ever do - quietly bargaining for the virgin forest timber dependability!

Water used for the process is filtered and recycled.

APPLICATIONS

Non-food and food applicable.

Blends or pulp compounds for commercial, industrial, paper & automotive products on the one side, food, cosmetics and consumer products on the other.

Sustainable replacement for virgin forest derived cellulosic-based textiles - known to include rayon and lyocell fibers, some real environmental burdeners!

FOOTWEAR APPLICATIONS

Production process

Collaborative agreements to incorporate and adjust 9FIBER® for an existing end product, after which a new line gets added to their (Lite) Engineered Organic Fibers™ supply. The targeted end product application is a conjuncture of unique volumes, processes & market research all mixed together by the specialists on their team. With their array of select ingredients and oxidation reaction based processes, 9FIBER® is introducing something new to the planet - whilst actively reducing the carbon footprint on the side.
