PhoSul® is an organically enhanced rock phosphate fertilizer designed to improve performance while mitigating the hazards associated with traditional phosphate fertilizer production. Conventional methods utilize phosphate-containing rocks that require processing with strong acids, resulting in gypsum waste contaminated with heavy metals.
Merck & Co. has developed a “continuous process” to produce KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab), an immunotherapy drug that increases the immune system to detect and fight tumor cells. In the new process developed by Merck, proteins are filtered away from the cells continuously rather than performing a one-time filtration step at the end of a batch.
Developed by Carbios, a French biotechnology company that focuses on solutions for recycling plastics and textiles through enzymatic recycling technology. The process uses an enzyme capable of specifically depolymerizing the PET (polyethylene terephthalate) contained in various plastics or textiles.

Amphitex™ is a PFAs-free alternative to traditional waterproof and breathable textiles. Developed by Amphico, a leader in integrating research, engineering, and design to advance innovation and circularity, Amphitex™ is crafted for outdoor use with a unique, coating-free Amphidry™ Yarn. This yarn is essentially superhydrophobic and does not require additional water-repellent chemical coatings. Free from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), Amphitex™ achieves high performance in both waterproofing and breathability, matching the standards of industry leaders.
Woodland Biofuels is a company that converts waste biomass to hydrogen, renewable natural gas, methanol, or ethanol. The company uses gasification, which involves converting biomass feedstock into syngas through a high-temperature, oxygen-limited process. The syngas is then subjected to highly efficient catalytic reactions to produce carbon-negative fuels. Woodland’s technology uses waste biomass from low-cost, non-food sources such as forest, industry, agricultural, and municipal waste as input feedstock.
Seventh Generation is a pioneer company that specializes in eco-friendly household and personal care products made with plant-based, biodegradable ingredients and recyclable packaging materials. The company prioritizes using safe, non-toxic ingredients free from synthetic fragrances, dyes, and phosphates. All ingredients are listed on their products and website, including the environmental impacts of formulations. Many products have third-party certifications from the USDA BioPreferred Program, Leaping Bunny (for cruelty-free products), and EPA’s Safer Choice Program.
A biotechnology company that produces ingredients for active compounds for skin and hair care according to a biotechnological process derived from plant stem cells. Plant stem cells' regenerative potential for repairing damaged tissue and ability to regenerate from a single stem cell are the basis of Vytrus Biotech's product portfolio. Plan stem cells can be obtained from accurately selected plant tissues (explants) through a designed process of cellular reprogramming (de-differentiation).
