KERTEX is a next generation, high-strength bio-fabric. Taking its name from ‘ Keratin ’ and ‘ Textiles ,’ KERTEX is created from this fibrous protein that possesses unique structural properties and is among the toughest natural bio-polymers. Keratin is sustainable and abundant, found in robust structures like hooves and horns of animals. We extract Keratin from waste chicken feathers and convert it to fibers to be woven into KERTEX .
Polyester and other polymer-based textiles contribute between 20% and 35% of the microplastics choking Earth’s oceans. KERTEX is our durable and sustainable step away from petroleum-based fabrics and into the future.
