Carbon-negative fiber by design, for supply chains that must prove their footprint.

EU buyers already ask textile suppliers for emissions data, and the Digital Product Passport is expected to make product footprints comparable from around 2028. CarbonYarn™ is designed to turn captured industrial CO₂ into a premium fiber that stores carbon for the life of the textile, modelled at about -1.5 kg CO₂e per kg and not yet measured. We're raising a pre-seed round to move from validated science to bench proof and first customer conversations.

The Case

Why this, why now, why us

Why This

Carbon data is becoming part of supplier selection. Exporters who can show a lower footprint are easier to buy from.

Why Now

EU product rules are moving toward textiles. The Digital Product Passport will make footprints comparable. No incumbent serves this exact wedge.

Why Us

The science is validated in-silico. The expensive, uncertain part is done. This round funds market proof and bench scale, not a science gamble.

Market opportunity for low-carbon cellulose fiber

A large industry under growing pressure to show its carbon footprint, and an exporting economy with everything to gain from a lower-carbon, domestic fiber.

Expected to reach EU textiles

Why is now the right time for CarbonYarn?

  • EU buyers are already requesting emissions data from textile suppliers, ahead of the rules
  • The EU Digital Product Passport (expected from around 2028) will make textile carbon footprints visible and comparable
  • Pakistan is a top-5 global textile exporter, and most of its exports go to the EU and US
  • The external market for high-integrity carbon credits commands premium, growing demand

What sets CarbonYarn apart from other fibers

CarbonYarn combines a proprietary conversion process with a Pakistan-specific go-to-market built on buyer demand for emissions data. Rather than competing head-on with global pilot-stage players, we focus on a domestic exporting base that faces growing buyer pressure on carbon and has the most to gain from a lower-carbon fiber.

Business Model

Three revenue streams, sequenced over the buildout

Premium Fiber Sales

Lyocell-grade cellulose fiber that stores carbon for the life of the textile, sold to textile exporters as a lower-carbon input with documented footprint data.

Primary long-term revenue

Carbon Credits

Carbon physically stored in the fiber for the life of the textile (storage, not permanent removal), positioned for issuance into the external carbon credit market.

High-margin, methodology-dependent

Technology Licensing

Longer-term licensing of the modular Viridis Framework™ to industrial partners.

The De-Risking Path

What's proven, what this round funds

Already Proven

  • Modelled net carbon storage of -1.5 kg CO₂e per kg of fiber (approximate, in silico modelling)
  • Complete, validated process documentation
  • Defensible IP path underway
  • Capital-efficient modular model

This Round Buys

  • Bench-scale proof of concept
  • First Tier-1 mill customer conversations

FAQ

Questions investors ask

What stage is CarbonYarn at?

The process is computationally validated only and has not yet been run at bench or pilot scale. CarbonYarn is now in Phase 2, customer discovery and lab validation. The next milestone is a bench-scale proof of concept, with pilot production targeted for 2028 to 2029.

Does CarbonYarn sell fiber or offer samples today?

No. CarbonYarn does not yet produce, sell, sample or price fiber. This page will say so plainly when that changes.

Is CarbonYarn fiber carbon negative?

That is the target, and for now it is a modelled result, not a measured one. In silico modelling puts the net carbon balance at approximately -1.5 kg CO₂e per kg of fiber, which means more carbon is stored in the fiber than the process emits. The figure will be tested and refined at bench scale, and it should be read as an estimate until then.

Is this carbon removal or a carbon offset?

No. CarbonYarn describes this as carbon storage: the carbon is physically built into the fiber and held for the functional life of the textile. It is not presented as permanent removal, and it is not an offset.

Does the EU CBAM apply to textiles?

Not directly. The definitive period of the EU Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism began in January 2026, and it currently covers cement, iron and steel, aluminium, fertilisers, electricity and hydrogen. Textiles are not covered today. For textile exporters the pressure is indirect, coming first from buyers who ask suppliers for emissions data.

What is the Digital Product Passport and why does it matter?

The Digital Product Passport is a requirement under the EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation to provide product-level environmental data. It is expected to reach textiles from around 2028, once the detailed rules for textiles are adopted. A fiber with a documented carbon footprint would help brands and mills meet it.
