| Heartland is a material science company that engineers natural fibers as plastic additives. Heartland's additives enable manufacturers to reduce their carbon footprint by upwards of 50% in the first 3 years while reducing the cost of goods.Over time, it's become clear that all of the materials we rely on every day have a really highcarbon footprint. This means that it's our responsibility to figure out how we can collectively reduce the negative impact that these raw materials have on our planet.As a natural fiber processor, we work with farmers, manufacturers, and their suppliers to embed high-performance carbon-negative additives into various raw material supply chains. Almost everything that can be seen or touched is made from plastic, rubber, foam, wood, paper, ceramic, or building materials. Infusing natural fiber additives into these existing raw materials allows manufacturers to increase the performance and reduce the carbon footprint of the products they're already manufacturing.Join us in a carbon negative future. | Venture - Series Unknown / May 02, 2024 | ||
