One platform. Four pillars.

From weak signals to sourceable grades the tools to monitor, explore and source sustainable materials, all in one place.

Innovations Database Startup Monitoring Next Gen Materials Material Library
Pillar 01 - Innovations Database

Never miss a breakthrough

The strategic monitoring platform for sustainable materials & process innovations: 3,000+ entries, curated and updated continuously.

  • 3,000+ innovations both products and processes with source and visual
  • Filter by the 4R strategy: ReSource, Recycle, ReUse, Recover
  • Filter by maturity: idea & research, prototype, on the market
  • Sort by material family, and by origin vs destination sector
  • Ask our AI in natural language and export your findings

The challenge

How do you turn 10,000+ patents from green startups into insights that investors, innovation leaders and open-innovation teams can actually act on?

Our answer

Advanced filters innovation type, target sector, market potential, environmental impact, circularity combined with an AI that scores maturity and disruption from the full text, powered by proprietary business matrices. To our knowledge, no equivalent exists for sustainable-materials and recycling patents.

Investors

Surface high-potential technologies before the market does.

Innovation leaders

Anticipate disruptions on your technology roadmap.

Open innovation

Find the right technology partners, fast.

Pillar 04 - Material Library

Source with data you can defend

The reference database of commercially available bio-based & recycled grades every value scored, sourced and dated.

  • 500+ commercial grades from 200+ real producers recycled (rPP, rPET, rHDPE, PCR) and bio-based (PLA, PHA…)
  • Data quality score & confidence rating on every grade you see how solid each entry is
  • Coverage shows availability, not guesswork: physical, thermal, mechanical gaps are shown, never invented
  • Full traceability: primary source, official / manufacturer, access date, link to the datasheet
  • Sustainability at a glance: bio-based %, PCR %, compostability, recyclability, food contact confirmed or flagged
  • Ready for PPWR recycled content & eco-design files

A material database built for real sourcing decisions

Stop cross-referencing scattered datasheets. The Material Library brings together 550+ commercially available bio-based and recycled plastic grades each verified against a manufacturer datasheet, each traced to its source.

Recycled polypropylene (rPP)

Food-grade FDA and industrial rPP grades from post-consumer recyclate (PCR). Melt flow, density and end-of-life, by grade.

Recycled PET (rPET)

Bottle-to-bottle, food-grade rPET from producers worldwide. Verified recycled content for PPWR compliance.

Recycled HDPE & LDPE

Post-consumer rHDPE and rLDPE grades for packaging, film and rigid applications, with mechanical data.

PLA & bio-based polyesters

Bio-based PLA grades and suppliers, with compostability (industrial & home) and biosourced content certified.

PHA & biodegradable polymers

PHA, PBS and PBAT grades for compostable and marine-biodegradable applications, from real producers.

Recycled engineering plastics

rABS, rPC, rPA and glass-fibre reinforced recycled compounds for demanding technical parts.

Every data point sourced

A value enters the database only when a manufacturer datasheet confirms it. Unverified data is flagged, never estimated, so your recycled content and eco-design claims hold up.

Producers, not distributors

The Material Library lists 215+ companies that actually produce the resin, from PCR recyclers to bio-based polymer makers. You source the material, not a reseller.

Built for regulation

Recycled content, biosourced content and end-of-life are documented for each grade: the data you need for PPWR, EPR and eco-design files.

Four pillars, one competitive edge

Monitor what's emerging, explore what's next, and source what's available all on one platform.
