CiCLO ® synthetic textiles behave like natural fibers when they end up as pollutants in the environment. We do this by embedding countless biodegradable spots throughout the matrix of the plastic.

Yarns and fabrics made with CiCLO ® (pronounced sēklō, translates to cycle) fibers reduce the persistence of plastic microfibers in our oceans and plastic accumulation in landfills.

CiCLO® technology is a patented textile ingredient that allows polyester and nylon to biodegrade naturally, significantly reducing the time synthetic fibers (microplastics) pollute the environment.

Like all inherently biodegradable materials, CiCLO® fibers will only biodegrade when exposed to moisture and microbes over time. Finished fabrics and products maintain durability and performance …

When added to polyester or nylon, CiCLO® technology allows fibers that end up fugitive in the environment to behave like natural fibers such as wool.

CICLO translations: cycle, series, school, cycle, cycle, cycle, cycle. Learn more in the Cambridge Spanish-English Dictionary.

Sep 29, 2022 · Intrinsic Advanced Materials — a joint venture between Intrinsic Textiles Group and Parkdale Advanced Materials — offers a solution to man-made microfiber pollution with its CiCLO® …

Apr 27, 2024 · CiCLO® technology, a patented sustainable textile ingredient, is a beacon of hope for our environment. It’s added to recycled or virgin polyester and nylon during melt extrusion, creating …

Jan 29, 2025 · CiCLO is dosed into the fibres as they are being spun, and we offer formulations for both batch and continuous polymerization manufacturing processes for staple fibre and filament yarn.

Meaning “cycle”, CiCLO® allows synthetic, plastic-based fibres to break down at a similar rate to natural fibres, such as wool and cotton. As a result, we leave less waste behind on our journey to create a …
