U.S. Bio-based Textiles Market Size & Trends

The U.S. bio-based textiles market size was valued at USD 6.08 billion in 2024 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 8.5% from 2025 to 2030. The bio-based textiles industry is expected to grow with increasing demand for sustainable products, heightened environmental awareness, and supportive regulatory frameworks. Bio-based textiles are biodegradable and engineered to decompose naturally at the end of their lifecycle. These are manufactured from renewable resources, such as plants, algae, and microorganisms, which help minimize landfill accumulation and eliminate microplastic pollution. This market shift reflects a broader transition toward environmentally responsible manufacturing and consumption practices.

Textiles are vital to everyday life, from clothing and furniture to medical and protective equipment. As textile usage continues to grow, so does its impact on the environment. Most textile fibers today are made from fossil-based materials like polyester, which contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, high water usage, and the depletion of natural resources. To address these issues, many companies in the U.S., including Mylo (U.S.), Bolt Threads, and Allbirds, are developing bio-based textiles made from renewable sources such as wood, fiber crops, algae, fungi, and agricultural waste. These materials are often biodegradable and more environmentally friendly. They also offer new opportunities for innovation and are helping drive the expected growth in the sustainable textile market.

Moreover, the growing focus on ‘Made in U.S.A.’ textile products has increased the import and export of high-tech driven apparel and fabrics. In 2023, U.S. textiles accounted for over 83% of the output of the textile and apparel industry, which is also contributing to the rise of bio-based textiles in the U.S. There are three main types of bio-based fibers, which include natural, semi-synthetic, and synthetic. Each type follows a distinct value chain shaped by different production technologies, which results in textiles with unique properties and applications. By replacing conventional synthetic textiles with bio-based textiles, such as bamboo or hemp, and adopting sustainable manufacturing processes, the industry can expect significant reduction in emissions and waste.
