Eyewear

Fashion accessories

Our handcrafted eyewear blends material innovation with fashion, offering fully industrially compostable, hinge-free designs devoid of non-degradable components for a sustainable future.

Consumer Goods

Consumer goods

From interior pieces like vases, stools, and diffusers to collectible design objects, our creations range from small-scale to mass production—crafted from 100% sustainable bioplastic.

Furniture

Furniture

Crafted from natural and biodegradable materials, featuring a UV-reactive bioskin, or designed with a stackable modular system—our furniture pieces are packed with innovation.

New bio-based materials
born to replace toxic materials

All our natural materials are designed to be ready for use in products that have a life span of years, but then disappear without a trace.

Biodegradable

Nuatan® degrades in industrial compost facility into water, CO2,
and biomass within 120 days.

Stable and durable

Nuatan® can last for dozens of years, withstand high pressure, and resist temperatures of up to 100°C.

Manufactured from 100% renewable sources

Nuatan® is made from biopolymers derived from natural resources like corn, sugarcane, and potatoes.
