Sustainability · Green Whisper®

Banana trunks. Real textile fiber.

Green Whisper® transforms agricultural waste from banana harvests into a high-quality textile fiber. No extra land. No extra water. No extra energy. Just residue that would otherwise be burned, blended with cotton into a fabric with greater tear resistance and a longer lifespan.

Cycle transformation

From the field to the customer.

We have developed a technology in our French offices that allows us to cut the banana trunks and extract the fibers directly in the producers’ fields.

The fibers are then processed and transformed into coils to which a percentage of cotton is incorporated. The resulting textile has greater tear resistance, a longer lifespan, and can be washed at low temperatures.

The banana tree only bears fruit once in its lifetime. The farmer is compelled to cut it down after each harvesting season — our process turns that residue into textile fiber.

The benefits

Why it works.

Environment

No need to dump or burn agricultural residues — eliminating storage in illegal dumps and pollution caused by illicit burning.

Local economy

Local farmers recycle agricultural residues through the Green Whisper® process, generating additional income and creating new jobs.

Agriculture

Residues remaining after the Green Whisper® process are used as agricultural fertilizers. Containing no chemicals, they are used for subsequent crops.

Sustainable

The end customer receives a top-quality product that is environmentally friendly and 100% biodegradable.
