Nepal Natural Fibers
Building organized market channels for Nepal's plant fibers — allo, hemp, nettle, flax, cotton and beyond.
Plant fibers with real global demand
Nepal's mid-hill and terai ecosystems produce distinctive plant fibers — many are hand-processed by cooperatives with generations of craft knowledge. UTCN organises supply, quality and market access so producers can trade with designers, exporters and global brands directly.
Six fibers, one platform
Allo
Himalayan giant nettle — strong, silky bast fiber woven by hand.
Hemp
Durable, sustainable fiber for apparel, home textiles and rope.
Nettle
Wild-harvested nettle fiber processed for specialty weaves.
Flax / Linen
Emerging Nepal-grown flax for linen yarn and blends.
Cotton
Local cotton pilots for organic apparel value chains.
Other Local Fibers
Banana, bamboo and other regionally sourced plant fibers.
Value added at the source
Central processing hubs handle retting, decorticating, spinning and blending — plant fibers with silk, wool and cotton for premium finishes.
Fiber testing, colorfastness, tensile strength and eco-certification for global buyers.
Every fiber batch is documented from cooperative origin to buyer — the foundation of premium pricing.
