EnviroTextiles with its international headquarters in Glenwood Springs, Colorado is a pioneer in natural hemp fiber, they manufacture more than 300 hemp fabrics and other natural fiber fabrics. Its fibers and products replace toxic products such as synthetics, polyester, and polyurethane.

The textile industry is dominated by synthetic materials such as polyester, nylon, rayon, or acrylic because synthetic and microfibers are cheaper to produce and easier to produce on a large scale. But the production of these synthetic fibers is damaging the environment on a massive scale. Synthetic fibers are man-made fibers and are usually manufactured usually from oil, coal, or natural gas.  

EnviroTextiles is a pioneer in sustainable textiles, specializing in fabrics made from hemp and a variety of organic fibers. Its one-of-a-kind natural fabrics and natural fiber products are used to make eco-friendly clothing, furniture, accessories, bath, and personal products, as well as building finishing materials, fiberglass fabric replacements, and much more. All of their products are made from organic sources, including hemp, agave cactus, coconut fiber, silks, linens, jute, and others.

The hemp fabric collection includes canvas, twill, muslin, plains, silks, jersey knits, stretch knits, hemp fleece, French terry, specialty knits, apparel fabrics, and heavy upholstery fabrics. In addition, each product passes a total transparency of sustainable biodegradable products. The SBP® Certification label informs the consumer of a step-by-step process that takes place as each product is made. From the cultivation practices in the field to the raw materials and processing used; finishes/stains, to the working conditions involved. Each collection has a (PIT®) Product Information Transparency walkthrough from start to finish. 

EnviroTextiles is an industry leader in the effort to improve corporate social responsibility and transparency in manufacturing, processing, and labeling. They personally manage each of their production facilities across the globe. They currently provide wholesale hemp fabric, yarns, and finished products to over 70 countries around the world.
