C-Fiber

Seaweed is often touted as a miracle material, but too often it languishes in the research lab. Which is why we have high hopes for Pangaia’s C-Fiber – a seaweed and lyocell-based material.

The resulting fabric is used in a range of products that are widely available on its website (albeit at a relatively high price). Even better is that the brand plans to license the material to other apparel makers, although we are yet to see that happen. Solve these pricing and distribution issues and this could be a material to watch.
