FluoRok
We are a VC-backed spin-out of the University of Oxford reinventing the way fluorochemicals are produced. Fluorochemicals are fundamental to our daily lives (Li-ion batteries, agrochemicals, marketed drugs, materials) and we are developing disruptive fluorinating technologies that are safe, efficient and sustainable for a cleaner planet and a brighter future. Co-founded by Prof. V Gouverneur and Dr G. Pupo, Fluorok’s mission is to find new solutions to drive the energy transition, improve people’s health and food availability while reducing our impact on the planet.
