NitroCapt is a climate-tech company developing a patented chemical process, SUNIFIX, to produce climate-neutral nitrogen fertilizers. The process uses only air, water, and renewable energy to enable sustainable, fossil-free production of nitrogen fertilizer, with a focus on Europe. By replacing fossil-based inputs, NitroCapt aims to reduce environmental impact while maintaining cost efficiency and crop yields, helping agricultural producers transition to a decarbonized nitrogen fertilizer supply. The company positions its technology as enabling producers to be more profitable than continuing with traditional fertilizers, while advancing sustainability in agriculture.

Catalyco develops high-surface-area zinc oxide by recovering zinc oxide from industrial waste streams, creating a local, sustainable supply chain and reducing dependence on imports. It manufactures advanced ZnO materials with high purity and unique characteristics for use in chemicals, rubber and tires, cosmetics, ceramics, glass, and adsorption and catalysis. The company's recovery technology minimizes impurities and resource consumption, enabling customers to lower production costs, reduce environmental footprint and carbon emissions, optimize manufacturing processes, and maintain compliance with environmental regulations.

Graphmatech AB, founded in 2017 and headquartered in Västerås, Sweden, specializes in the invention, development, and sale of innovative graphene-based nanocomposite materials and services. The company's product portfolio includes aros graphene thermal grease, aros graphene polymer 3D filament, aros graphene conductive ink, and aros graphene coated polymer powder. Graphmatech focuses on enhancing material efficiency to support the green transition by reducing the amount of material needed for various applications. Their materials offer superior properties such as high thermal and electrical conductivity, self-lubrication, self-cooling, lightweight design, low friction, and high wear resistance. These characteristics enable industries to create new products using graphene hybrid materials, including polymers for the hydrogen economy that leak less, better metals, and copper/graphene powder for 3D printing that is more conductive than pure copper.
