BIOPURE HS5
Hydrophilic Softening Agent
What is BIOPURE HS5?
BIOPURE HS5 is a coconut oil-based hydrophilic softener designed to deliver exceptional softness and moisture wicking to textiles. Its advanced formulation provides textiles with penetrating softness and a silky-smooth surface, while its hydrophilic properties ensure moisture wicking performance. This innovative softener enhances the comfort and functionality of treated fabrics, offering a sustainable and plant-based alternative to conventional softener technologies.
Ideal for a wide range of applications, BIOPURE HS5 delivers consistent and reliable performance across various fabric and fiber-types. It provides near equivalence in softness and equivalent or superior moisture wicking performance compared to silicone-based softeners, ensuring that textiles achieve the desired feel and functionality while maintaining environmental responsibility. BIOPURE HS5’s ability to balance softness, smoothness, and moisture management makes it a standout choice for our comfort and performance-driven world that demands responsible solutions.
How it works
BIOPURE HS5 enhances textiles through its hydrophilic nature, delivering exceptional softness, smoothness, and moisture management. This coconut oil-based softener works by chemically bonding with textile fibers, using its slightly cationic nature to form strong, durable connections. These bonds are formed deep within the fiber structure, ensuring the hydrophilic properties and softness are both durable and effective through 30 washes.
The unique value of Coconut Oil among fats and oils:
It is a rich source of medium-chain fatty acids (MCFAs) that offer an optimal balance of hydrophilic and lipophilic properties which enables superior softening and moisture management performance.
Coconut oil exhibits excellent thermal stability, making it ideal for textile processing at low to moderate drying temperatures.
The uniform molecular structure of coconut oil-derived fatty acids ensures consistent application and performance in industrial processes.
Coconut oil can bond with both natural and synthetic fibers, providing a highly versatile solution for textiles while maintaining environmental responsibility.
Coconut oil is a naturally occurring, biodegradable, and renewable resource.
A regenerative agriculture program is currently in development that will provide further transparency and traceability to industries that source from farms in Southern India, while also improving and caring for the land, habitat, and local communities.

Coconut Oil
Our pioneering approach to sustainable textile chemicals is continued with our coconut oil-based technologies. The productivity of coconut trees in Southern India is generally high due to the favorable climate conditions and established farming practices. A hectare of land produces approximately 2,000 kilograms of coconut oil, annually.
The sandy and saline-rich soils of the coastal regions are well-suited for coconut cultivation, making effective use of land that is less suitable for other crops. The trees are grown in low-lying areas, on hill slopes, and marginal lands where it is less fertile for other crops. Coconut trees are tolerant of saline conditions and can grow in areas with brackish water, which reduces the need for irrigation. This is particularly beneficial when freshwater is limited. The extensive root system of coconut trees helps bind the soil, reducing erosion and maintaining soil health. This is particularly valuable across the coastal region, in the hills, low areas, and marginal lands that are prone to erosion.
In our manufacturing facilities, we use 100% renewable energy sourced from wind and solar. Through our state-of-the-art chemical manufacturing equipment, we reduce our environmental impact and maximize our efficiency.
Our coconut oil-based technology is meticulously developed to enhance the comfort and performance of textile products. We recognize the importance of considering the entire lifecycle of a product, from raw material to disposal. By utilizing sustainable ingredients and advanced engineering, we ensure that our products not only meet high-performance standards but also contribute to circularity, environmental wellbeing, and waste reduction efforts. The journey towards a sustainable and responsible future, is one that should not be tread alone. Together, we can achieve a goal of limiting climate change.
