Soft materials reinvented, without animals and plastics
Biomanufacturing was poised to offer solutions. But slow, inefficient processes held it back. NanoTwine™ changes that.
Introducing NanoTwine™
Stronger than leather, better than plastic – a material fermentation technology platform to displace plastic- and animal-based materials across verticals.
The tech
Our smart fermentation platform powered by our unique bioprocess is finally bridging the gap between nanocellulose’s lab-scale promise and real-world impact, bringing radically better materials to earth and beyond.
- No need for massive bioreactors, we scale efficiently at a fraction of the size and capital cost
- Faster fermentation, higher productivity
- Transforming BNC economics to enable mass-market, high-impact applications soon
The process
1. Upcycle food waste
Using food waste as feedstock for our microbes.
2. Grow the cells
Precision fermentation
3. Cells convert waste into nanocellulose sheets
Our nanocellulose can be engineered during and after growth
4. Processing tailored to different use cases
Multi-vertical use-cases unlocked by specific formulation and processing technologies
Use Cases Across Industries
Sheets & membranes
Fashion, audio membranes, interior design
Hydrogel
Aerogel
Hyper-insulating materials, oil cleanup, bone scaffolds
Absorbent Hygiene Products (AHPs)
