Non-toxic and biodegradable vegetable-based tanning agent for producing leather. Utilizes tanning agent extracted from olive tree leaves that exists as a by-product of the Mediterranean olive harvest. Reduced emission of CO2 as excess leaves are no longer burned. Free from metals and chemically synthetic reactive tanning agents. Requires neither agricultural land nor food. Reduction of acids, salts, syntans, and dyestuffs compared to traditional tanning methods.
Probiotic soaping agent for textiles. Does not contain phosphates or alkalis, resulting in fabrics with better depth and color brightness. Decreased water usage due to the need for less wash cycles. Lower effluent parameters (BOD, COD, TDS) by 15 to 20%, even with less water usage. Application flexibility as it can be applied in a wide range of pH and temperatures. Fully biodegradable and isn't enzyme based. Reduces operating cost.
PFAS-free and biodegradable textile waterproofing, biobased and readily degradable multi-functional wax, bio-based and readily biodegradable detergent, and biodegradable and fluorocarbon-free industrial DWR products. By combining the natural fatty acids of plants with Nobel Prize-winning chemistry organocatalysis, OrganoClick has created an effective water repellency that is environmentally sustainable and high-performance.
PCA-free poly-reactive range of dyes. Saves water and energy by 50% or more and reduces CO2 emissions to 50% or less during the dyeing and washing-off process. Free of toxic chemicals. Improved productivity, reduced cost, and the highest level of light and wet fastness across the entire shade gamut and color spectrum compared to conventional dyeing. Saves time as the process takes 4 hours while the traditional process takes 7 hours.
Biobased (biopolymers & plant-based substances) binder for nonwoven and technical textiles. Binders made with biopolymers from residual streams in the food industry (such as orange peels, shrimp shells, wheat bran) instead of mainly fossil plastic polymers (EVA, acrylates) that are traditionally used in binders. 100% biodegradable, compostable, and non-toxic.
Enzymatic scouring, or BioPreparation™, for the pretreatment of cotton knits, woven yarn, and towels. Uses pectinase to remove pectin and wax from cotton fiber, producing fabrics with instant absorbency for even dyeing. Water savings up to 67%, time savings up to 50%, and energy savings up to 50% compared to traditional pre-treatment. Saves to energy and water by removing the need for separate handling and optimization of wetting agents and emulsifiers. Eliminates harsh chemicals used in traditional scouring, such as strong alkaline & bleaching chemicals.
Premium PVC-free carpet tile backing made from a thermoplastic polyolefin compound. PVC-free. It weighs 25% less, resulting in carbon reductions during transport. Superior tensile strength compared to traditional PVC backing, improving durability. Products are reclaimed and recycled at the end of use.

Non-toxic, eco-friendly, and sustainable chemicals that prevent and remove biofilms. These chemicals can replace toxic biocides in consumer and agro-industrial products. A subset of the company's chemicals kill antimicrobial-resistant (AMR) Superbugs. Biofilm forms when bacteria adheres and multiplicates on a surface. Biofilms increase the chance of bacterial infections in animal and plant tissues. Biofilms cause the adhesion of "foulers" in industrial surfaces in contact with water or salt water.
Protein Surfactant Complex™ (PSC™) that improves surfactant power. PSC™ is the formation of complexes between certain proteins and metabolites derived from food-grade yeast with a broad range of surfactants. PSC™ enhances surfactant performance and efficiency. They work with a variety of surfacts. PSC™ also reduces the cost of production of cleaning products, agricultural chemicals, and other industrial products. PSC™ does not contain hazardous chemicals, volatile organic compounds, or ozone-depleting substances.
Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technology with a biosynthetic surfactant. The biosynthetic surfactant in this WMA allows the mix to be manufactured at temperatures 60° to 90°F lower than the traditional asphalt. This reduces energy consumption by 55%, reducing carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxide emissions. This technology uses 75% more recycled material in its mix composition. Conventional asphalt paving mixes contribute to greenhouse gas emissions.
