Waves of Innovation BIO™

1997 – Today:
2018:
Leveraging Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) material to make microfibers for high performance, thermally efficient products.
PrimaLoft® Bio™ is designed to return to materials found in nature, reducing the long-term impact of microplastics in our oceans, landfills and waterways.
Future:
2019:
To manufacture our high-performance product solutions, we require high-grade recycled inputs. We have been working with polyester stabilizers that would enable us to leverage more prolific, lower-grade recycled inputs. By doing so, we will be able to offer the same high performing, thermal insulating fibers while also participating in the global reduction of plastic waste in a deeper way.
PrimaLoft® P.U.R.E.™ is a renewable manufacturing technology developed to drastically reduce the carbon emissions produced during the manufacturing process of our products.

Future:
PrimaLoft was founded with the intention to mimic and match the performance and lightweight properties of duck and goose down in synthetic form. Decades of innovation, including the launch of our ThermoPlume® product line, has brought us closer to a solution. Recent advancements in fiber and processing technology have gotten us closer to a one-for-one replacement. While still in an incubation phase, we are encouraged by preliminary findings and the ability to eliminate global demand for animal by-products in favor of a blowable, synthetic, vegan alternative.
A strategic alliance between Origin Materials and PrimaLoft to develop high-performance, carbon negative insulating fibers for diverse product applications. This alliance will focus on carbonnegative PET and next generation polymers, turning wood residue into carbon-negative materials that reduce our reliance on fossil fuels. With time and scale, this will serve as a new sustainable chassis on which further technologies will be built.
