help.

Our Mission is to replace petroleum-based plastics that shed dangerous microplastics in baby food with safe, renewable biopolymers.

We invite you to help us with a $1.00 loan.
Why $1.00? A million small loans of $1.00 allow us to develop and test safe biopolymer materials at scale — repaid from future revenue.

What your dollar pays for.

01 / DEVELOPMENT

Developing biopolymer materials for pouch spouts and liners that hold up to filling, shipping, and a child's grip — replacing petroleum plastics directly.

02 / SCALE & ADOPTION

Working with biopolymer engineers so food companies can adopt safe biopolymers at scale without rebuilding their lines.

One dollar, from enough people, changes what millions of babies eat.
