May venture spotlight

Get to know a selection of our deep tech chemistry ventures

29 May 2024

Every month we take a deeper look at some of the deep tech chemistry ideas coming from our community. Find out more about what our ventures are developing: 

            

BindEthics


BindEthics has developed an adhesive that is sustainable, non-toxic and not derived from fossil fuels. When replacing traditional adhesives with this biobased alternative, the engineered wood panels turn into sustainable products that can be recycled and become part of the circular economy cycle. 

Find out more about BindEthics' process and its role in the circular economy. 
 

Figura Analytics

Figura Analytics counts particles to give a fingerprint of what a sample should look like and then allow rapid identification of potential contaminants. Their business also uses AI to improve the accuracy of the data they create and DNA aptamers to deliver specificity of a contaminant where required.

Learn more about Figura Analytics and how they are analysing liquid samples.
 

Lambda Energy Ltd

Lambda Energy synthesises molecules and incorporates them into polymer films that, through doping, allow for luminescent downshifting and quantum cutting properties. Their technology has been developed into a light changing spray coating for greenhouse panels that can increase crop yields by 20%.

Read more about Lambda Energy's breakthrough technology and how it can be used.
 

Medisieve

MediSieve uses nanoengineered magnetic particles for blood filtration, enabling unprecedented levels of selectivity and efficacy and revolutionising the treatment landscape for a wide range of currently underserved patients.

Explore MediSieve's technology and how it can be used.
 

Colorifix

Colorifix uses a biological process to produce, deposit, and fix pigments onto textiles, cutting the need for harsh chemicals and aiming to deliver huge environmental savings. Their process finds a colour created by an organism such as an animal, plant, insect, or microbe. Then via online DNA sequencing they pinpoint the gene that lead to production of the pigment and then translates this DNA code into their microorganism, resulting in an engineered microorganism than can produce the pigment.
