Regenesis is a sustainable materials innovation deep-tech company developing advanced recycled materials for the fashion and plastic industries. It was born as a spin-off after 6 years of sustainable product development with Pangea Movement.
We are developing high performance recycled composites made from ocean bound plastic waste and captured CO2, using nanotechnology and AI, starting with eyewear, with a vertically integrated global partnership model.
The company initially launched with a direct to consumer model producing sustainable outdoor products and recycled eyewear, selling products to thousands of customers online in 80 countries, that cleaned 120,000 kgs of plastic waste from the environment.
We are now successfully transitioning to a B2B materials platform model to enable the same level of circularity and regenerative impact at a global industrial scale. We are supplying advanced recycled eyewear produced with our materials to global brands.
Through our Regenesis 360 program, we provide a one-stop integrated ecosystem to enable eyewear companies to transition to a certified, low-carbon, circular-economy model compliant with existing and upcoming EU regulations.
