Silvis is working on bio-based emulsions to replace petroleum materials in paints, inks, coatings, adhesives, binders, and even cosmetics and pharmaceuticals . Petroleum accounts for 10-15% of GHG emissions from factories. Silvis is working on a lower cost, bio-renewable and bio-degradable emulsion platform which can be used in multiple applications for a variety of markets.
Petroleum is a component of plastics that exist in all these products, and GHGs are not the only pollutant. The extensive use of plastics in almost everything we touch end up in our landfills and oceans. Silvis believes they can help cleanup parts of the whole pollution chain, reducing landfill pollution and chemical waste in our waterways.
Techstars Industries of the Future in Knoxville, Tennessee, selected Silvis to join their program from over 3,000 applicants. Oak Ridge National Labs and the University of Tennessee is part of this program and will mentor and share their expertise with Silvis. Both institutions have deep experience in cellulose, scaling and more. Techstars provides a great opportunities to work with top industry mentors on startup growth and venture funding.
