With dozens more projects in the pipeline, we are helping global companies like Zara, H&M Move, Coty, and on use recycled carbon to make sustainable consumer products from carbon that would otherwise be emitted from heavy industries such as steel making.

Our team :

• We’re a diverse, woman-led company, with over 400 team members and counting
