PLA plant fiber batting—commonly designated as corn fiber cotton or polylactic acid fiber cotton—is a bio-based nonwoven material engineered from staple fibers derived from corn starch via sustainable sourcing. Processed through needle-punching technology, its interlocked fibers form a stable 3D reticulated structure that delivers exceptional loftiness, breathability, and hygroscopicity. The inherently non-toxic, odorless fibers provide mechanical integrity with 15-40 N/cm tensile strength , while partial biodegradability aligns with circular economy principles. This eco-engineered textile serves critical industrial roles including air/liquid filtration, smoke purification, seedling protection mats, and furnishing padding.

The material exhibits excellent loftiness, breathability, and hygroscopicity, with inherently non-toxic, odorless fibers. Through needle-punch processing, fibers become interlocked into a stable three-dimensional reticulated architecture, delivering mechanical integrity with 15-40 N/cm tensile strength and structural support capacity.
This product finds extensive application across air/liquid filtration systems, smoke purification units, agricultural seedling protection mats, mattress and furniture padding composites, cut-flower preservation substrates, and related technical textile domains.
