Our Innovation

A platform for sustainable sterile packaging

We are developing a sustainable medical packaging platform using cellulose nanofibrils and nanocellulose-based biomaterials — built for sterile-barrier performance and regulatory readiness.

Engineered barrier

Fibrils assembling into a continuous high-performance material.

At the heart of our platform, cellulose nanofibrils self-organise into a dense, oriented network — forming a continuous film with mechanical integrity and oxygen-barrier performance suitable for sterile medical use.

Oriented fibril barrier film — illustrative

Nanocellulose Material Technology

Engineering cellulose nanofibrils into films with controlled mechanical and barrier properties.

Biodegradable Barrier Coatings

Nature-derived coatings that deliver oxygen and moisture protection without persistent plastics.

Sterile Medical Packaging Design

Pouches, lids and tray formats designed against sterile barrier system requirements.

Healthcare Waste Reduction

Designing for clinical waste pathways that reduce incineration burden.

NHS Sustainability Alignment

Mapped to NHS Net Zero, Greener NHS and sustainable procurement criteria.

Regulatory Validation Planning

Roadmap built around ISO 11607, biocompatibility and sterilisation compatibility.
