AlgiKnit
AlgiKnit is creating eco-conscious, renewable yarns for the circular economy. We’re developing durable yet rapidly degradable yarns from kelp, one of the most regenerative organisms on the planet. Our material is built for everyone: a functional and accessible resource without environmental harm. We’re envisioning a future where the textile industry operates in a closed-loop product lifecycle, utilizing materials with a significantly lower footprint than conventional textiles.

Newlight Technologies
Newlight was founded in 2003 with a question: why can't we use greenhouse gas emissions as a resource to make materials? After 10 years of research and development, Newlight has developed a carbon capture technology that pulls carbon out of greenhouse gas and uses that carbon to produce a bioplastic material called AirCarbon™: a naturally-occurring material that can match the performance of oil-based plastics and out-compete on price.
