Fortera is a company focused on developing innovative solutions for the cement and concrete industry with the aim of significantly reducing carbon dioxide emissions. It has created a process that captures industrial carbon dioxide emissions and mineralizes them to produce a more environmentally friendly form of concrete. This method not only addresses the substantial carbon footprint associated with traditional concrete production but also offers improved performance characteristics. By providing sustainable alternatives to conventional cement products, Fortera contributes to global efforts to mitigate climate change and enhance the environmental sustainability of construction practices.

Alt. Leather is a patent-pending, 100% bio-based alternative to leather made entirely from renewable, plant-based inputs. The innovation lies in our unique materials chemistry platform, combining a regenerative natural fibre backing with a proprietary plant-based resin, bio-elastomer, and a high-performance bio-based topcoat. Unlike existing alternatives that rely on fossil-derived polyurethane or animal hides, Alt. Leather uses no petrochemicals, is compostable under industrial conditions, and achieves durability benchmarks aligned with ISO leather standards. Our platform is modular and tunable, allowing formulation adjustments to meet diverse performance needs across multiple sectors including fashion, footwear, upholstery and automotive interiors. We are also developing future applications in coatings, adhesives and material treatments. The technology is currently at pilot stage with three signed brand agreements and ongoing ISO and end-of-life validation testing. - Looks, feels, and performs like premium leather - Uses regenerative crops and horticultural waste inputs - Is fully free of fossil plastics, PFAS, and animal content - Breaks down under industrial composting in <6 months - Anchored in a customisable chemistry platform with potential beyond leather: adhesives, coatings, packaging, and more
