Our lab is where biological waste becomes industrial material.

A team of designers and industrial biochemists, working hands-on with wool fibres, seaweed extracts, mycelium, oat hull, draff, and hemp, mussel shells to produce proof-of-concept materials that are 100% biobased, 100% biodegradable, and built to perform.

We are not a consultancy that writes reports about materials.
We make them.

Open to co-development with industry partners.

If you have a residue stream and a product question, contact us now to discuss a feasibility engagement.

100% biodegradable

Biobased materials are essential but not sufficient. All materials we create and use must be fully biodegradable to prevent creating new pollution problems that could harm our ecosystems and health, therefore are our main focus.
Regenerative: We aim to create 100% biodegradable materials. Our aim is to ensure that the compounds from your biodesigned material can be fully absorbed by natural ecosystems, benefiting Nature instead of just taking from its resources.

100% biobased

To tackle our environmental, social, and industrial challenges, we must be unwavering in our choice of materials and their value chains.
Integrity: All our research uses 100% bio-based raw materials, with 0% plastic involved.
Regional: Our DesignBiolab prioritizes sourcing from local and nearby suppliers to reduce carbon emissions.
Social: By collaborating with local partners, we enhance their knowledge and promote regional social value while creating new environmentally friendly jobs.

Six months delivery

Time is running out for you, your stakeholders, our ecosystems.
Robust: All (y)our proof of concept comes with accurate data collected by our DesignBiolab staff while carefully creating your biodesign.
Clear: Our proposals are straightforward, friendly, and concise, encouraging us to fulfill our promises.
Efficient: To speed up a positive impact, our team commits to delivering your proof of concept within six months from your order.
