Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Fairbrics is a company focused on carbon dioxide valorisation, converting CO2 emissions into materials for industrial use. According to its website, the company positions CO2 — normally treated as a waste greenhouse gas — as a feedstock and building block for organic compounds, and applies research and development to substitute fossil-fuel-derived inputs across three sectors: fashion (synthetic textiles), chemicals (production inputs and processes), and packaging (PET-based plastics).

In textiles, the company states that its processes allow synthetic fabrics to be produced from CO2 emissions with the aim of reducing the fashion industry's reliance on fossil fuels while maintaining quality and performance. In chemicals, it describes incorporating recycled carbon dioxide into manufacturing processes to lower greenhouse gas emissions. In packaging, it notes that PET accounts for roughly 31% of global plastics used and describes developing plastic packaging materials comparable to fossil-derived equivalents but intended to reduce the sector's carbon footprint. The website refers to the resulting outputs collectively as "FairProducts" and lists a group of supporters, though no named partners, customers, financing or production volumes are disclosed on the site.

Business model

The public website does not describe pricing, contracting or sales arrangements; it presents Fairbrics as an R&D-driven developer of CO2-based material production processes serving industrial end markets.

No dated news, financing, partnership or product announcements about Fairbrics appear in the sources retrieved; the only company-specific material is the corporate website's overview of its mission and target sectors.

Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, risks & controversies

Market position

The website frames the company as an early participant in CO2 valorisation, positioning carbon dioxide as a resource rather than solely a pollutant; no market share, ranking or competitive comparison data is available in the sources.

Stated differentiation rests on using captured CO2 emissions as feedstock across multiple downstream sectors simultaneously — textiles, chemicals and packaging — rather than a single application, with claims that the resulting materials match the performance of fossil-derived equivalents.

Technology

Processes for recycling and valorising captured carbon dioxide emissions into organic materials, including synthetic textile fibres, chemical products, and PET-based plastics, developed through in-house R&D. No technical specifics, capacity figures or process details are published on the company website.

Go-to-market

Industrial sectors named on the company website: fashion and apparel manufacturers, chemical producers, and packaging companies that depend on PET plastics.

Geography

Not specified in the public sources reviewed.

Risks & controversies

No controversies are reported in the available sources. Available information is limited to company self-description, with no third-party verification of technical claims, production status or commercial traction.
