Fiber grades

One material. Four grades. Every grade specified.

From textile-grade long staple to micronized hurd — every Naut Fiber output ships with a Technical Data Sheet, a lot-level Certificate of Analysis, and chain-of-custody documentation back to its Vichada cultivation block.

Long Fiber

Textile-grade staple fiber for spinning lines.

Naut Long Fiber is engineered for ring-spun, open-end and cottonized spinning systems. Staple length 30–110 mm, low hurd residual, low lignin profile, with consistency validated lot by lot through our ISO 17025 partner laboratory network.

Staple length:    30–110 mm (graded ranges available)
Hurd residual:    ≤ 6%
Fineness:         12–25 dtex (typical)
Color:            Natural ecru / dew-retted golden
Moisture:         ≤ 12%
Compatible with:  Cotton-spinning · Lyocell blends · Wool blends
Long Fiber

Short Fiber (Cottonized)

Mechanically cottonized fiber for nonwovens and blends.

Cottonized fiber drops into spunlace, airlay and needlepunch nonwoven lines, and into blended yarn lines (cotton, viscose, lyocell). Engineered for fineness, length distribution and openness compatible with high-speed mill equipment.

Length:           8–35 mm (controlled distribution)
Fineness:         < 8 dtex (cottonized)
Lignin:           Low
Compatible with:  Spunlace · Airlay · Needlepunch · OE/Cotton blends
Short Fiber (Cottonized)

Hurd

Calibrated woody core for industrial applications.

Naut Hurd is delivered in three controlled granulometry grades — 15 mm, 2 mm, and 0.5 mm — engineered for biocomposite formulators, hempcrete builders, packaging manufacturers and animal bedding processors.

Granulometry:     15 mm / 2 mm / 0.5 mm
Bulk density:     ~110 kg/m³ (15 mm)
Moisture:         ≤ 12%
Ash content:      ≤ 3%
Applications:     Hempcrete · biocomposites · bedding · packaging
