      Outdoor home textiles (curtains, awnings, beach mats, outdoor sofa fabrics, tents, courtyard soft clothing, etc.
1、 Strong UV resistance, not easily faded or aged
      PLA fiber itself has UPF50+and comes with UV resistance, without the need for additional chemical additives.
      Long term exposure to outdoor sunlight makes it less prone to yellowing, less prone to brittleness, and has high color fastness
      More resistant to sun aging and longer service life than ordinary polyester and cotton fabrics
2、 Natural anti mold, antibacterial, anti mite, and anti odor properties
      Outdoor exposure to frequent rain and moisture can cause ordinary fabrics to become moldy, develop spots, have a moldy odor, and breed mites and bacteria.
PLA is a weakly acidic fiber, making it difficult for bacteria and fungi to survive
No need to add antibacterial agents, it can inhibit mold and prevent odor
Suitable for damp environments such as courtyards, balconies, lakes, and beaches
3、 Quick moisture absorption and sweat wicking, no stuffiness, comfortable hand feel
      Fast moisture absorption and conductivity, dries quickly after rain, and is less likely to stick to the body due to prolonged dampness
      Soft to the touch and good drape, unlike rough and stiff synthetic fibers
Outdoor seat cushions and lounge chair fabrics provide a better sitting experience
4、 Good weather resistance, rain resistance, salt alkali resistance, and corrosion resistance
      Seaside, riverside, and green belt environments have salt spray, moisture, and slight acidity and alkalinity:
      PLA is resistant to weak acid and alkali, salt spray, and is not easily corroded or powdered
      Good dimensional stability after rainwater washing, not easily shrunk or deformed
5、 Low static electricity, dust-free, easy to maintain outdoors
      Low static electricity, not easy to adsorb dust, pollen, and fluff
The surface is smooth and not easy to hide dirt. It can be wiped with clean water daily and is easy to clean and maintain
6、 Flame retardant and safe, non-toxic to combustion
      Outdoor activities are often found in courtyards, terraces, and camping scenes
PLA has good flame retardancy and self extinguishes upon ignition
      Burning without black smoke or toxic gases, far safer than ordinary synthetic fibers
7、 Environmentally friendly and biodegradable, in line with outdoor ecological trends
      Outdoor soft furnishings, disposable outdoor products, garden decoration fabrics:
Plant based raw materials with carbon neutrality properties
      After disposal, it can be naturally composted and degraded without producing white pollution
      Cultural tourism, scenic spots, and homestays all prefer environmentally friendly materials
