Our Technology
The potential of feathers
Feathers are composed of keratin, a chemically resistant and physically strong protein.
Thanks to their microscopic, hollow strcutre structure, they are one of the lightest natural fibres in nature and are also excellent thermal insulators.
So there has to be a better use for our surplus feathers.
The world’s first sustainable insulation material made from surplus feathers.
We have harnessed the properties of feathers to create a unique patent-pending insulation material, designed to replace expanded polystyrene as a thermal packaging material for life science or pharmaceutical deliveries.
With the next generation of therapeutics and medicine comes an increase demand for cold chain logistics. We must shift away from plastic packaging. PluumoPlus matches the required insulation performance of expanded polystyrene while being created from a natural surplus material.
This is just the start of our journey.
While we will continue to scale up our production capabilities for PluumoPlus, we will also look to develop a range of sustainable feather-based materials across different industries - such as construction and automotive industries.
We are aiming to create an entirely new value chain our of surplus feathers.
We are developing the technology to enable the local production of sustainable materials anywhere in the world, wherever there are feathers.
