MUMBAI, India, Aug. 31 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611072436 A) filed by Noida International University on June 11, 2026, for Pinashield: Bio-Composite Fire & Thermal Barrier.
Inventors include Dipak Sethi; and Money Saxena.
The application for the patent was published on August 28, 2026, under issue no. 35/2026.
Abstract: PinaShield is an innovative bio-composite material engineered from processed pineapple rind and peel fibers, combined with natural binders, flame retardants, and thermal insulative additives. This dual-function composite offers advanced fire resistance for integration into firefighter uniforms and efficient thermal insulation for rooftop coverings. Leveraging the high cellulose and lignin content naturally present in pineapple rind, PinaShield achieves inherent heat resistance, which is further enhanced through eco-friendly treatments and surface modifications. Designed to provide sustainable, lightweight, and effective protection, PinaShield represents a transformative solution for both personal protective equipment (PPE) and building insulation materials.
