More than 1,238 laws regulating plastics have been passed to date, and many more are on the way—including the UN Plastic Treaty, which saw 175 nations agree to develop a legally binding agreement on plastic pollution by 2024.

Our work is to fill that gap. We’re developing and scaling natural performance materials, so that designers, brands, and end consumers have categorically new and better choices.
