Infinna
Infinited Fiber Company's regenerated cellulose fiber made from textile waste (cotton-rich clothing, cardboard). A novel carbamate process transforms waste into a cotton-like fiber, enabling true circular fashion at scale.
Material Score Breakdown
7-axis material rubric, not a garment verdict — see disclosure below.

Heat retention and insulation
Ability to pull sweat away from skin
Environmental impact of production and disposal
How easy it is to wash, dry, and maintain

We don't have any infinna products in our catalog yet — it's a rare semi-synthetic fiber. Here are top-rated semi-synthetic alternatives:
What this score doesn't measure
This is a material rating, not a verdict on any specific garment made from infinna. The axes above are research-backed averages for the fiber itself.
- ×Construction. Yarn staple length, weave / knit structure, stitch count, finishing. Identical fiber, very different garments.
- ×Fabric weight (GSM). A 140 GSM tee and a 220 GSM tee made of the same infinna feel and last very differently.
- ×Dye + finishing chemicals. Beyond the three we flag (PFAS, formaldehyde, antimony), dozens of textile finishes aren't modelled.
