Bioworks

Product

Bioworks develops, manufactures and sells PlaX, a plant-based material used in synthetic fibers and textiles. It modifies polylactic acid with its own additives to improve properties and dyeability for clothing, household fabrics and industrial applications.

The Japanese company works with manufacturing and brand partners to bring these materials into commercial products. Its product range covers filament and staple fibers, giving textile makers alternatives to petroleum-based materials.
