Spinnova is a developer of wood-based textile fibers based in Finland. Spinnova is currently researching methods to increase the amount of textile fiber produced by its proprietary technology. The wood-based textile developer is currently the only one in the world that is able to convert pulp directly into textile fiber without using chemical solvents. Fabrics made out of the fiber have a smaller ecological footprint than traditional alternatives as they can be reused, recycled and composted.

Chemical solvents are used, for example, in the production of viscose. Spinnova has been involved in material research for years and has paid close attention to developments in this area. Globally significant expertise and technology needed for material development exists in Finland.

The company wants to find new materials for producing fabrics and textiles for environmental reasons. Spinnova, founded in 2014, has developed its technology based on research conducted by the Technical Research Centre of Finland.

Spіnnova uses a globally unіque technology to turn wood fіbers dіrectly іnto yarn, wіthout complex chemіcal processes. The patented Spinnova yarn technology is the first sustainable and cost-efficient alternative to cotton, providing unprecedented benefits and advantages compared to other technologies and materials. It leaves a smaller envіronmental footprіnt than polymer or cotton-fіber processes.
