Manufacturing and materials for producing sustainable soft goods at scale
About us
Simplifyber has created a first-of-its-kind manufacturing process that uses plant-based fibers to create entire 3D-shaped soft goods directly, in a single step. Simplifyber's patented process eliminates the need for spinning, weaving/knitting and greatly reduces the need for sewing, and will transform fashion’s supply chain into plant-based 3D manufacturing, at a cost competitive with plastic and polyester.

Simplifyber's collaboration with the automotive giant Kia Worldwide (KIA), showcases the dexterity of Simplifyber's technology. Our manufacturing platform is agnostic to vertical market and produces car parts on the very same assembly line as it produces footwear. Simplifyber created the Instrument Panel (Dashboard) and associated door panels for KIA's brand new EV2 concept car (image below; © KIA). These components used Simplifyber's next-generation proprietary cellulose-based formulation, Simplifyber Fybron™ – a material made from a mix of sources including wood, paper and/or recycled textiles. This collaboration marks KIA as the first automotive brand to apply Simplifyber Fybron™ in vehicle design. #materialinnovation #sustainablefashion #nextgenmaterials #climatetech #newmanufacturing #3Dmanufacturing #sustainablematerials #automotive #KIA #Hyundai Hyundai Motor Company (현대자동차)
