Our mission
Rapidly reducing global dependency on plastics by accelerating the scale and widespread adoption of biomaterials.
Action with a sense of urgency
As traditional plastic production continues to disrupt our planet, the implications of climate change only accelerate. To make meaningful change, we must address the climate crisis with the urgency it demands.
Biomaterials, as alternatives to traditional plastics, represent less than 0.5% of the over 400 million tons of plastic produced annually.
Why make the switch?
Biomaterials break down into organic matter when disposed of properly, reducing waste and environmental impact.
