Bananatex is a natural cellulosic biodegradable "technical" canvas fabric made of Abacá banana plant fibres (also known as Manila hemp). The plants are grown in the Philippines as part of a sustainable forestry project in Catanduanes. Bananatex was developed and is distributed by the Swiss canvas goods company QWSTION and is used in the company's own products as well as in other companies' manufactured goods. Bananatex was developed to have better wear characteristics than cotton while being more sustainable. Although not as durable as synthetics like Cordura, it avoids cordura's limitations of being a plastic and being non-biodegradable. Bananatex is sold in a range of colours and is available with or without a natural beeswax waterproof coating.
