A New Generation of Sustainable Plant-Based Textile Material
JUNCAO fiber is a groundbreaking natural fiber derived from Juncao, a fast-growing herbaceous plant originally developed for mushroom cultivation and ecological restoration. The word “Juncao” comes from the Chinese words “jun” (菌, fungus) and “cao” (草, grass), referring to fungus-growing grass — an agricultural innovation pioneered in China that has gained global recognition for its environmental and economic value.
Through advanced eco-friendly extraction and regeneration technology, Juncao plants are transformed into a high-performance, bio-based textile fiber.
JUNCAO fiber combines the renewability of plant resources with functional textile properties, offering an eco-conscious alternative to traditional synthetic and natural fibers.
