The most advanced materials in human spaceflight are soft goods: textiles and composites, meticulously sewn, bonded, and sealed by people who know failure isn’t an option.
By working directly with American farmers, Anatar is returning the economic value of American cotton to American hands. We support the @USDA’s Great American Cotton Plan to strengthen America’s cotton supply chain and revive rural communities.
The Great American Cotton Plan puts farmers first. 🚜🇺🇸
Through the Working Families Tax Cuts Act and targeted policy wins, the Trump Administration is reviving the U.S. cotton sector, supporting rural communities and lowering costs on everyday essentials.
Here’s how we're doing it: 👇
First look at our automated assembly line. Engineered to produce one garment every 22 seconds, it operates 24 hours a day with a single operator. This unit will be demonstrated in North Carolina before installation at our Atlanta facility.
Working on combat uniforms for the US Army today. See us at booth #423 at FEDTEX to learn how Anatar is automating textile manufacturing for the U.S. military and NATO-allied forces.
We’re building the infrastructure for humanity’s next chapter with our celestial neighbor. With customers spanning multiple branches of the military and commercial space industry, Anatar is positioned to meet significant demand in 2027.
"Led by 20-year textile innovator Kaia Rhodes, Anatar is pioneering the textile factory of the future by solving the impossible." — Chang Robotics Fund

Shipped the first prototype of AMIE, Anatar's AI materials discovery engine. Powered by Materials Project (Berkeley Lab), Semantic Scholar (Allen AI), ArXiv, and Claude. AMIE enables AI-driven discovery of novel composites and functional coatings for aerospace and defense.
NASA has identified soft goods, advanced composites, non-flammable materials, and dust-tolerant soft-sided logistics systems as critical technology gaps for the Moon Base program.
The need for advanced textiles goes beyond clothing.
It extends to habitats, covering everything from wall panels to storage bags. Nonwovens, felts, webbings, zippers, sewing threads, coatings, finishes, foams, and elastics.
A complete soft good is accurately described as an engineered system, often termed "technical soft goods," which blends material science, industrial design, and manufacturing strategy to create durable, high-performance items.
Far from simple sewn textiles, these products are designed to perform specific, often demanding functions under pressure.
