Bio-based Fiber

Bio-based fibers (flax / hemp / bamboo / ramie / jute) are the new frontier in automotive lightweighting and eco-friendly construction. EU recyclability regulations and automaker ESG targets have landed Bcomp's flax fiber in BMW / Porsche / Volvo interiors. Carbon footprint is just 1/5 of glass fiber.

APPLICATIONS

Typical applications

WHERE

Main applications

Automotive interior (BMW M4 CSL seats / doors) · Sports equipment (skis / tennis rackets) · Bio-based construction · Packaging · Eco-friendly home goods · EV lightweight structural parts.

WHY

Why bio-based

Carbon footprint 80% lower than glass · Biodegradable · Excellent damping (high-frequency vibration −20%) · Moderate cost ¥ 15-40 /kg. Downsides: hygroscopic (surface treatment required) · Temperature limit 200 °C · Lower mechanical strength than glass fiber · Batch-to-batch variation needs tight QC.
