Highly considerate of both the environment and the economy! Developing biodegradable cellulose-based resins with minimal complex chemical reactions.
There is research and development attempting to create cellulose-based resins by breaking down cellulose with acids or enzymes and converting it into sugars. However, due to the labor-intensive processes involved in the decomposition and pre-treatment stages, there are issues with production costs for practical application. From this perspective, our company is developing biodegradable cellulose-based resins while minimizing complex chemical reactions. As a result, the cost becomes lower during mass production, making it a biodegradable resin material that is considerate of both the environment and the economy. Furthermore, our company already has technology for compounding cellulose nanofibers, which are also plant-derived, with resins. By applying this technology to the material, we can also create a composite material of biodegradable cellulose-based resin and cellulose nanofibers. 【Features】 ■ Minimize complex chemical reactions ■ Lower costs during mass production ■ Highly considerate of both the environment and the economy ■ Composite material of biodegradable cellulose-based resin and cellulose nanofibers is also available ・Improvement in mechanical strength confirmed through cellulose nanofiber compounding *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We are a chemical company that researches, develops, manufactures, and sells cutting-edge materials and technologies in the environmental and energy sectors aimed at building a decarbonized society. We are developing various advanced materials and technologies, including natural biomass-based biodegradable plastics (resins), biomass coating materials, biomass inks, next-generation solar cells, next-generation secondary batteries, next-generation fuel cells, quantum dots, metal-organic frameworks, ionic liquids, deep eutectic solvents, and cellulose nanofibers. Our original brand, Nano Sakura, under GS Alliance, significantly enhances the functional properties of raw materials by "compositing" cellulose nanofibers, which are the main component of plants, with various existing resin materials, resulting in an environmentally friendly, next-generation high-performance advanced material. We also offer products made from 100% natural materials derived from natural biomass waste resources such as wood, plants, bamboo, paper, recycled paper, seaweed, and starch, aiming for a grade with zero petroleum usage, striving to create materials that are as environmentally friendly as possible. We have been selected as a startup support program company by UNOPS, a United Nations-related organization. UNOPS S3i Innovation Centre Japan
