Universal Fibers Introduces New Carbon Negative Fiber

Global fiber manufacturer Universal Fibers announced Thrive matter, a nylon fiber which the company says features end-to-end production that will remove carbon from the earth’s atmosphere.

“This is our most sustainable product yet, and it is something our customers in the carpet industry and their customers in the architecture and design world have been waiting for," said Phil Harmon, president, Universal Fibers. “Our bottom-line commitment is to reduce our industry’s carbon footprint and with Thrive matter we’ve doubled down on that commitment. We’ve invented new technologies and processes that re-route what once would have been considered 'waste' back into the finished product. This lets us reduce our carbon output, making Thrive matter and our other sustainable products good for the planet and a great choice for our customers.”
