Fusing Science & Technology to Lead the Sustainability Revolution

Revolutionizing the Future:

Drawing inspiration from ancient microbes and leveraging interdisciplinary approaches in science, engineering, and AI, we are developing technology that efficiently transforms raw materials, such as waste carbon streams, into valuable products like chemicals and materials. Our innovation aims to solve the most pressing 21st-century problem of carbon and waste management. One important use case of our platform technology is converting excess carbon into next-generation bio-polyesters. These 'smart' biopolymers are designed to degrade more readily than traditional fossil-fuel-derived plastics and naturally break down in both soil and marine environments.

Ancient Microbial Processes

Ancient bacteria store carbon as “fat reserves.” These fat reserves are actually natural polyesters that degrade naturally.
