Bananatex

Bananatex® is the world’s first durable, biodegradable and plastic-free fabric made purely from regeneratively grown Abacá banana plants. Developed by Swiss bag brand and material innovators QWSTION in collaboration with a yarn specialist and a weaving partner in Taiwan, Bananatex® is a fully circular solution with the lowest possible environmental footprint. The three parties joined forces with the aim of making a positive impact on the planet’s future, resulting in a next-gen material that adheres to the Cradle to Cradle principle.
