Novonesis

Novonesis is a leading biotech company specializing in enzyme solutions, and it plays a significant role in promoting sustainability within the textile industry. The company offers a range of biodegradable enzymes designed to reduce the environmental impact of textile production by minimizing the use of water, energy, and harsh chemicals.

One of Novonesis' key innovations is Fiberlife®, a biopolishing solution specifically developed for man-made cellulosic fibers (MMCF) such as viscose, modal, and lyocell. Biopolishing helps remove loose fiber ends, reducing fuzz and pilling, which extends the lifespan and maintains the new look of garments for up to 60 washes. This process not only enhances fabric quality but also supports the circular fashion movement by enabling the recycling of textiles​​.

Additionally, Novonesis' enzymatic solutions improve worker safety by reducing the need for hazardous chemicals in textile manufacturing. This aligns with growing consumer and regulatory demands for more sustainable and safer production practices.
