Protein Evolution

Protein evolution process for infinitely recyclable high-quality plastic. Our technology unites natural science and artificial intelligence to engineer enzymes that can effectively break down plastic waste and create good-as-new plastic material. This process will help decarbonize the chemicals industry and allow companies, communities and governments to meet their sustainability goals in the years ahead. Step 1 Identify the waste. We choose the type of plastic waste we want to recycle and save from entering the environment – whether that's a water bottle, car tire, or piece of clothing. Step 2 Engineer enzymes. Uniting natural science and artificial intelligence, we develop enzymes that break down the waste source so we can recycle it in an economical, sustainable way. Step 3 Break down the plastic. When we combine our enzymes with plastic waste, our enzymes break down the waste into its “building blocks” in a low-emission, eco-friendly process. Step 4 Reproduce materials. Our customers use these “building blocks” to create good-as-new plastic bottles, textiles, and other infinitely renewable plastic products.
