Human Material Loop

Combining science, engineering and design, the brand transforms keratin into a high-performance material for commercial interiors and other demanding applications. Its patented technology is intended to enable production at scale using established textile manufacturing infrastructure.

The first commercially available product is ādara® Felt, an industrial felt offered in multiple weights, colours and formats for sampling, specification and production. It is designed for acoustic surfaces, wall applications, furniture and spatial elements. The material brings together fire resistance, high lightfastness and acoustic performance: the company reports a B2 classification without chemical after-treatment, Grade 7 lightfastness and an acoustic absorption rating of αw 0.85.

ādara® describes its fiber as a lower-impact alternative that does not require agricultural land or cultivation. Its life-cycle assessment, based on ISO 14040 standards, reports significantly lower carbon emissions and water use compared with conventional textile fibers; the full assessment is available upon request.
