Soft materials reinvented – without animals and plastics
The linear model of material manufacturing is broken. Survival on earth and in space requires switching to a circular model
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 multi-vertical material technology to displace plastic- and animal-based materials across industries.
The tech
Our smart fermentation platform powered by our unique bioprocess is democratizing access to versatile nanocellulose sheets bringing radically better materials to earth and beyond.
- No need for massive bioreactors — scale efficiently at a fraction of the size and capital cost
- Faster fermentation, higher productivity
- Cutting production costs in more than half
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
Filteration systems, face masks, soil relacement
Aerogel
Hyper-insulating materials, water purification
Absorbent Hygiene Products (AHPs)
Menstrual hygiene, babycare products, etc.
