organic fibers
Plant or animal-derived
Organic fibers are fibers derived from living organisms—plants, animals, or other natural sources.
Cotton, wool, silk, and linen are organic fibers, as opposed to synthetic fibers like nylon or polyester.
The term appears in textiles, composites, and materials science: The insulation uses organic fibers rather than fiberglass.
