* Patent Pending IP making Nanotechnology Affordable & Greener.
* Within 1st year opened two production facilities in the UK.
* Selected Alpha & Impact at Web-Summit 21", NatWest Accelerator 22".
* Aims to save up to £600M of food waste resulting in 1M Tonnes of CO2e reduction.

==Problem==

* Every second we emit over 1000 tonnes of CO2.
* Lack of regulation.
* Solutions slow to market.
* Greenwashing by corps.
* Policy clashes.
* Compromises to our lifestyles.

==Solution==

'''Nanoparticles'''

* Can be used as building blocks at molecular levels.
* These particles are extremely small – can be as small as DNA.
* Metalchemy manufactures green silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) that can kill harmful organisms.
* Can be incorporated inside food packaging.

'''Bioplastics'''

* Nanoparticles can be embedded into bioplastics.
* Can be used as food packaging and increase shelf life hence reducing waste.
* AgNPs could allow for faster decomposition of the bioplastic and organic waste composting.

'''Food packaging'''

* Nanoparticles have been used successfully to increase food shelf life significantly when applied to food packaging.
* Globally, 1.6 billion tonnes of food is wasted.
* This equates up to £1 trillion loss every year as well as food waste contributes up to 3.3 billion tonnes CO2e.

'''Why is there a need for better food packaging?'''

* UK households could save up to £700 per year.
* Food businesses could save up to £4.5 billion per year.
* That’s up to 25 million tonnes of CO2 emissions cut in the UK per year.
* 5 million people in the UK in food poverty.
* Making fewer compromises to our lifestyles.
