1
3PLW
Funding: $43.8M
3PLW develops a process that can convert food waste into feedstock for biodegradable plastics. The process involves breaking down raw organic waste and then fermenting it to create a “soup” after which the solids and liquids are separated.
2
UBQ Materials
Funding: $245.6M
The UBQ proprietary process transforms Residual Municipal Solid Waste (organic and hard-to-recycle materials), destined to landfills, into innovative bio-based UBQ Material, that can be used to make everyday long-lasting products. UBQ's material can be used in current manufacturing processes and is already adopted across sectors (building and construction, consumer durables, logistics and supply chain, retailer environments, and automotive) to substitute oil-based resins. It is compatible with most polymers: polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polyolefins and elastomers, making it a great material for injection molding. There is also an alternative for low-flow extrusion.
3
TIPA
Funding: $130M
TIPA manufactures bio-based, fully compostable packaging for the food and fashion industry. It compares its packaging material to orange peel, decomposing in 180 days in compost conditions.
4
WINT
Funding: $50M
WINT is a water intelligence system that helps save water, reduce consumption, and prevent water leaks.
5
RepAir Carbon
Funding: $44M
RepAir Carbon’s aim is to develop cell approach to capture or store greenhouse gases “at a gigaton scale”.
6
TripleW
Funding: $43.8M
TripleW upcycles food waste into high-demand, high-value lactic acid, the building block of PLA bioplastics.
7
Homebiogas
Funding: $32.3M
Homebiogas develops bio-toilet which can convert human waste into cooking fuel sans the need to access sewers or water grids.
8
Evigence Sensors
Funding: $28M
Evigence Sensors provide brands, retailers and consumers a new way to monitor the shelf life of perishable products in real time to reduce food waste by managing freshness.
