Newlight Technologies

Description

• About Newlight: Newlight Technologies is a sustainable materials company using carbon capture technology to produce high-performance materials that replace oil-based materials on a market-driven basis.Newlight was founded in 2003 with a question: why cant we use greenhouse gas emissions as a resource to make materials? Over the course of 10 years of research and development, Newlight developed a breakthrough biotechnological process to produce a material called AirCarbon®: a high performance long chain thermoplastic polymer made by combining air and methane-based carbon emissions that is able to match the performance of a range of oil-based plastics while out-competing on price, thereby creating a market-driven solution to displacing oil and capturing carbon.Today, Newlight is operating the world's first commercial-scale greenhouse gas-to-AirCarbon manufacturing facility, using air and biogas to produce materials used in the production of packaging for Dell, furniture for KI, electronics accessories for Sprint and Virgin, and a variety of other products. Following commercialization in 2013, AirCarbon was named Biomaterial of the Year by the Nova Institute in 2013, one of the 100 most technologically significant innovations of the year by R&D Magazine in 2013, 2014 Innovation of the Year by Popular Science and received the prestigious EPA Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge award in 2016.
