Low carbon
Our preliminary LCA shows the carbon footprint of New Grain™ is less than 2 kgCO₂e per m². We're pursuing a verified third-party LCA for our roll-to-roll manufactured material in 2026.
100% plastic- and rubber-free
No bio-derived plastics, no petrochemical inputs or topcoats. No rubber, so it's safe from EU Deforestation Regulation.
Nontoxic chemistry
All ingredients and pigments we use are ZDHC compliant and safe for people and planet.
Made through local supply chains
We source our spent grain from regional brewers and distillers and we manufacture New Grain™ entirely in the UK, empowering local circular economies. As we expand, we plan to empower local supply chains in the EU and globally.
