SEE OUR PAST WORKTortoise shells and beetle wings represent nature’s ability to protect and contain sensitive contents. We used this biological intelligence to help Natura create user-friendly packaging with a lower carbon footprint.
The blood digesting capabilities of vampire bats’ saliva represents a chemical recipe from nature that helped humans create better stain removal products. We used this biological intelligence to help P&G design a more sustainable, effective laundry detergent.
Healthy ecosystems represent nature’s ability to provide vital services, like purifying water and cleaning air, to all its inhabitants. We’re using this powerful, ecosystem level framework to help Interface Inc. create factories that function like a forest.
