Bio-based Fibres 
Bio-based fibers are a response to the sustainable development needs of the fiber industry. Bio-based fibers refer to fiber materials made from renewable biomass (such as plant fibers, animal fibers, etc.). These fibers are usually environmentally friendly, degradable and biocompatible, and thus are gaining more and more attention in terms of sustainable development and eco-friendly materials. The application areas of bio-based fibers are quite wide, including clothing, home textiles, automotive interiors, building materials, etc. With the increasing awareness of sustainable development, the demand for bio-based fibers in the market is also growing.
| Mineral fibers | |
| These fibers are derived from minerals, the most common example being asbestos. Mineral fibers are generally not considered bio-based fibers because they do not come from biological sources. | |
| Animal fibers | |
| Animal hair | Wool, cashmere, camel hair, etc. They are often used to make clothing and thermal insulation products. |
| Silkworm cocoons | Silk is obtained by breeding silkworms and is often used in high-end clothing and accessories. |
| Plant fibers | |
| Seed fibers | Cotton, extracted from the seed part of the plant. |
| Bast fibers | Hemp, jute, flax, ramie, etc., usually derived from the stems or bark parts of the plant. |
| Leaf fibers | Pineapple fibers, derived from the leaves of the plant, often used to make handicrafts and environmentally friendly materials. |
The global bio-based synthetic fiber market is mainly occupied by polytrimethylene terephthalate (PTT) fiber, polylactic acid (PLA) fiber, polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fiber and polyamide (PA) fiber. But polybutylene succinate (PBS) fiber, polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) fiber and several other fibers also show promise. PLA, PBS, PHA are biodegradable, while PTT, PA and PET are non-biodegradable. The relevant bio-based fiber materials that CD BioSciences can provide are as follows:
