Ecohelix
Ecohelix technology produces a biopolymer that can replace oil based products on the marketplace. The Ecohelix technology is a biomimetic process that copies a reaction that occurs during wood formation. We just harnessed this enzymatic process that had been perfected for millions of years into an industrially applicable technology.
