Our Mission

At AEROPOWDER, we believe in the circular economy and in unlocking the potential of hidden waste streams.

We have turned our attention to the millions of tons of feathers that are generated every year around the world by the global poultry industry.

Our goal is to enable the local production of sustainable materials, anywhere in the world, wherever there are feathers.

 

Powered by feathers

Feathers are at the core of what we do.

Optimsied by nature over millions of years, feathers have a number of unique properties that enable them to outperform other solutions.

Although there are millions of tons of this material generated globally, to date this resrouce remains untapped - due to the inherent challenges in accessing and manufacturing with such a material.

At Aeropowder, we have developed a patent-pending process to engineer a high-performance insulation materials from feathers.

Our first product is Pluumo, a thermal packaging material designed to replace expanded polystyrene (EPS) used during food or pharmaceutical cold chain deliveries.

Pluumo outperforms expanded polystyrene by 20%

This is level of performance that other alternative solutions cannot match, allowing deliveries to stay colder for longer while avoiding plastic waste.

But packaging is only the start. We are just getting started in unlocking an entirely new value chain from surplus feathers...
