Eco-textile company Offset Warehouse recognizes the banana’s potential and currently partners with an NGO in Nepal to ensure banana fabric production supports the artisan sector by relying on local skills, and that workers are paid fairly and operate in safe conditions.

Offset Warehouse’s founder Charlie Ross said that the material is perfect for jackets, skirts and trousers. The fabric is claimed to be nearly carbon neutral and its soft texture has been likened to hemp and bamboo.
