FiberX Products, founded in 2022 and headquartered in the United States, is an innovative player in the Clean Energy industry. With the slogan, "High Performance Bio-based Chemicals and Materials Made Possible," FiberX combines agribusiness expertise with biochemical innovation to transform corn stover, the world's largest agricultural by-product, into valuable feedstocks for the chemical and materials industry.
Utilizing proprietary technology from Purdue University, FiberX has automated the conversion of corn stover into microfibers, enhancing biocomposite plastics and replacing non-renewable resources. Key advances include the creation of biocomposites that are twice as strong and more cost-effective by displacing synthetic polymers. Furthermore, their process for making "tuneable" lignin supports sustainable growth in resins, adhesives, and coatings sectors.
Recently, they received a $25.00K grant from AgriNovus Indiana, indicating investment traction and validation of their novel approach to bio-based materials.
