PalmFil is the world’s first textile fibers and reinforcements extracted from the byproducts of pruning of date palms, such as the frond and fruit stalks. PalmFil creates value out of the large quantities of underutilized byproducts of the 140 million date palms, which are otherwise open field burned!
PalmPeat is the world’s first soilless growing media and substrates extracted from date palm agricultural residues. PalmPeat provides a renewable and sustainable alternative to sphagnum peat moss, which has been facing increasing regulatory pressure on its extraction. PalmPeat expands the range of peat-free soilless substrates. Resulting in more geographically dispersed economical supply, in suitable volumes and quality with minimal carbon footprint. Which fulfils the ever-increasing demand for soilless growing media by the horticulture industry, without threatening the sensitive sphagnum peatland ecosystem.
NOUKK is the world’s first fine textiles from Arabian camel hair. Ethically sourced from the heart of the Sahara, each fibre tells a story of tradition and resilience while meeting the highest sustainability standards. The hair is harnessed from the Arabian camel that sheds every spring cycle naturally in the range of 1 kg. The hair is comprised from the fine undercoat and the coarse hair to which both have exceptional properties and utilization potential. In the Arabian Peninsula, the Arabian camel is widespread across many MENA countries, with significant populations in Tunisia, Algeria, the UAE, Egypt, Morocco, and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This newcomer to the fine animal hair library has the quality and the volumes to support the growth of the luxury textiles.
