Kapok fiber is a non-food fruit crop that can be picked from the tree on which it grows.

Flocus™ insulation materials have similar values to down on thermal resistance, evaporation resistance, and permeability but it is lighter and retains its properties after more washes.

ACTIVE PROPERTIES OF KAPOK

• Silky soft touch
• Lightweight
• Thermoregulating
• Insulating
• Hypoallergenic / Antibacterial
• Anti-moth / anti-mite
• Waterproof / Quick dry

ETHICAL BENEFIT OF KAPOK

• Kapok trees are regenerative. They grow on hill slopes and impoverished land not suitable for agriculture. They only need natural resources such as rain and sun resulting in 100% positive impact on the environment.

• Kapok trees need no irrigation, no pesticides and no fertilizers.

• Kapok trees absorb about 400 times the Co2 of an average tree.

• Kapok fiber is vegan and biodegradable.

• Flocus™ Flocus generates an efficient eco-system which preserves water, supports poly-cropping, organically fertilises the terrain, saves agricultural land, avoids erosion and deforestation, reduces carbon and increases O2 in the atmosphere. It is completely sustainable and regenerative.
