The next class of performance materials
Designer proteins that unlock new categories of durability, functionality, and feel for advanced materials — while reducing environmental footprint. A co-development collaboration with W.L. Gore & Associates.
The Challenge
What partners are up against
Consumers expect fabrics and materials to perform better — moisture management, weatherproofing, tactile quality — while being produced sustainably. Traditional synthetic chemistry caps what's achievable and carries a steep environmental cost.
Our Approach
How Arzeda delivers
Arzeda collaborates with materials innovators to develop designer proteins that create new classes of fabric. Our bio-based, biodegradable enzymes enable novel material architectures with reduced manufacturing waste and resource intensity.
Case study & results
Arzeda is collaborating with Gore to drive innovation in materials research with designer proteins, targeting a new class of performance fabric. Public details to follow as the partnership reaches commercial milestones.
