CYNTHIA FIBER

A GAME CHANGING NATURAL FIBER

CYNTHIA® is a new bio-based game changing fiber, available in a wide range of size (from flour to long fiber) allowing various applications in the fields of building and construction, such as Insulation & WPC (wood plastic composites).

CYNTHIA® has three main advantages in comparison to alternative fibers :

• An attractive price/performance ratio

• A much lower environmental impact: lower carbon footprint, no land used, no pesticides, no fertilizers, leaving land for agro-food industry and forestry conservation.

• A strong social impact: rivers are back to normal use (food, traffic…), job creation in rural areas.

OUR VISION

Our innovative approach is funded on the technical properties of Water Hyacinth discovered by In-Between International and on the growing demand of bio-based products. The result is CYNTHIA®, a bio-based and sterilized fiber, that our process can easily tune in terms of shapes and sizes (from flour to long fiber).

In-Between International aims to bring this innovative solution safely to the market. Once the first production unit will be up and running, our approach will allow an efficient management of invaded rivers freeing governmental expenses allocated to address the Water Hyacinth pandemic, while being an inexhaustible & profitable new industrial material, with easily replicable facilities worldwide.

PLANTA

NON GRATA

Water Hyacinth is an invasive free-floating aquatic plant present in more than 100 countries across the world. It is considered to be the world’s worst weed. Wherever it spreads, the plant has negative impacts on ecosystem by cutting access to rivers and lakes, blocking sunlight, preventing oxygenation of water and threatening aquatic ecosystems, biodiversity and fishes -to name a few. While climate change boosts its proliferation, the socio-economic and ecological burden of Water Hyacinth is directly hammering public expenditures and local populations

BE INVADED

NO MORE !

In-Between International is a start-up company specialized in the innovative and sustainable treatment of Water Hyacinth after having discovered its key technical properties (close to wood fibers) and patented the first industrial process able to get back control on its proliferation. In-Between proposes a business model based on the valorization of a renewable but threat-full natural resource by developing bio-based materials while restoring bio-diversity creating employment and economic growth.
