Fiberizing

/ˈfaɪbərˌaɪzɪŋ/ verb (gerund)

Definition

The process of converting or forming something into fibers or fiber-like structures.

Etymology

From 'fiber' (from Latin 'fibra' meaning thread or filament) plus the suffix '-ize' (from Greek 'izein') meaning to make or become, plus '-ing' for the continuous form.

Kelly Says

Fiberizing is the industrial magic that transforms wood pulp, plastic, or minerals into the threads that become everything from clothing to car seats—it's how we turn raw materials into the materials that literally wrap around our lives.
