🌿 Exciting news! 🎉 Naturbeads a startup company founded by University of Bath researchers, has received groundbreaking funding to build a new factory to increase production of its plant-based alternative to microplastic beads 🌍✨ The company has developed innovative biodegradable cellulose ‘microspheres’, which will replace microplastics in a range of consumer and industrial products. Professor Davide Mattia, said: “Naturbeads success would not have been possible without the constant support of the University of Bath. Janet and I started working on the technology behind Naturbeads over 10 years ago with support from the CSCT, now known as the Institute of Sustainability and Climate Change. “Naturbeads has hired several Bath alumni and the company’s R&D activities continue to be hosted at the University, creating a virtuous cycle between industry and academia. It is also a great example of the expertise within the University and the innovative collaborations that are possible between Faculties on campus.” 🌱💚 https://lnkd.in/eZjNEjUT #naturbeads #microsplastics #research
