Nextevo says the facility is primed to leverage on Vietnam’s strong end-to-end textile supply chain and provide a sustainable alternative fibre in the textile industry.
Nextevo’s expansion in Vietnam utilises agricultural by-products to create sustainable textile materials and supports sustainable initiatives in the fashion industry. The facility also benefits from proximity to major seaports, Ho Chi Minh City, and vertically integrated textile manufacturers. Located in Dong Nai, this interconnectivity enhances cost efficiency and reduces the need for long-distance inland transportation, minimising emissions.
Nextevo sources pineapple leaf fibre from the Philippines, Indonesia, East Africa, and soon, Vietnam and India. This diverse and scalable sourcing, claims to reduce climate risk and ensures a constant supply of raw materials.
It says as pineapple leaves are a byproduct of fruit cultivation, they require no additional land, water, or fertilisers. In this way, it minimises environmental impact.
The leaves are compostable and biodegradable and offer sustainability advantages. They also possess skin-friendly and breathable properties, making them ideal for innovative fashion and textile materials.
Nextevo offers pineapple RTS fibre that is processed in-house, as well as blended yarn and blended fabric.
