Know before you buy
This cable is compatible with virtually any USB-C device, including laptops, tablets, and smartphones. Because it supports up to 240W power delivery, it is powerful enough to charge high-demand devices like modern MacBooks and other USB-C laptops at full speed.
The exterior of the cable is crafted from plant-based materials like corn and sugar cane rather than traditional petroleum-based plastics. Despite this sustainable construction, it remains highly durable and is tested to withstand 10,000 to 20,000 bends, ensuring it resists fraying over time.
Yes. The cable is USB-IF certified, which means it meets strict industry safety standards. It also includes built-in protection against overheating and electrical overloads to keep your devices safe while charging.
While this cable is primarily engineered for high-speed power delivery up to 240W, it is designed for standard USB-C connectivity. It is best suited for charging your devices efficiently rather than high-bandwidth data transfers like 4K video output.
The bio-based nylon construction offers a balance between rigidity and flexibility. It is designed to be sturdy enough to prevent tangling and fraying, yet flexible enough for comfortable daily use at your desk or while traveling.
