4/ Our biorecycling process works with nature, not against it. We've designed enzymes that break down mixed plastic waste into chemical building blocks for new materials—at ROOM TEMP, atmospheric pressure, and with best-in-class yield.

3/ As we transition from combustibles, polyester is now China's largest driver of new oil usage. Plastic is choking our ecosystems, infiltrating our food, and driving a thirst for new oil and gas. While traditional recycling struggles to scale, biology meets the moment.

2/ We're on a mission to solve plastic waste through biology. The problem is as plain as the shirt on your back: 64% of our clothes are synthetic textiles, AKA plastics.

British startup, @epochbio, has just raised $11m to grow its plastic-eating enzymes tech. 🧫 The enzymes — brewed in a similar way to beer — could solve the world's plastic problem by breaking down currently unrecyclable materials. ♻️ #climatetech #Echobox=1655101389-2" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sifted.eu/articles/epoch…
