Matereal spun out of the National Renewable Energy Lab (NREL) in 2020.

Since then, we have participated in two notable programs: Venture for Climate Tech and Fashion for Good.

We are fighters

relentless in our pursuit to make products safe for consumers, laborers, and the planet.

We are optimists

believing that consumers will choose the safer, sustainable option given the chance. 

We have conviction 

that we must use our talents to transform the plastics and chemicals industry.

We are experts

in our respective fields of chemistry, manufacturing, artificial intelligence, fashion, and agriculture. 

We are driven

and will leverage our grit and tenacity to deliver the plastics of the future.
