About

BAST FIBRE TECH The single-use nonwoven market is dominated by synthetic and man-made fibres. Consumers, Governments and Legislators are demanding natural fibre options to replace the single-use-plastic status quo. BFT produces fully sustainable,100% plant-based, natural fibres with the technical and performance requirements needed in a wide variety of nonwoven applications. A better alternative to synthetic & semi-synthetic fibres, BFT fibres are created with an Oeko-tex 100 certified process and perform well on major nonwoven formation platforms. From baby wipes to disinfecting wipes, BFTi’s hemp and flax fibres bring performance and cost advantages to the single-use and durable nonwoven industry while simultaneously addressing the demands for natural, plastic-free & compostable products.
