Nibertex is a deep-tech textile startup revolutionizing the global performance fabrics industry with its breakthrough PFAS-free waterproof and breathable membranes. Founded in the Philippines in 2019 by brothers Jae H. Park and Jae M.
Park , Nibertex’s electrospun nanofiber technology is designed to create high-performance, sustainable alternatives to the toxic forever chemicals used in most existing water-resistant textiles. What Is Nibertex? Nibertex develops and manufactures eco-friendly membranes and
composites that combine exceptional waterproofing with breathability, comfort, and durability. Their signature product, a PFAS-free electrospun polyurethane (ePU) membrane, competes directly with category leaders like GORE-TEX, targeting global brands in technical textiles, outdoor apparel, healthcare, filtration, and beyond.
Their membranes are described as three times lighter than PFAS alternatives, twelve times more abrasion-resistant, stretchable in four directions, and unfazed by heat or cold. Crucially, Nibertex offers these advantages without compromising performance or sustainability , positioning itself as the new industry standard.
How Does Nibertex Work? Proprietary Electrospinning Technology: Nibertex uses a unique hybrid electrospinning process, which creates membranes thinner than a single wavelength of light.
This nanospun structure creates microscopic pores: it blocks water, yet allows sweat vapor to escape, delivering the comfort , silence, and flexibility that modern consumers demand…
