NatureWorks LLC is a pioneering company in the field of sustainable materials, offering an eco-friendly alternative to traditional petrochemical-based plastics and fibers. The company's flagship product, Ingeo biopolymer, is a low-carbon material derived from renewable, ethically sourced feedstocks. This innovative material is used in a variety of applications, promoting a circular economy and reducing our reliance on fossil fuels.

The company's business model revolves around the production and sale of Ingeo biopolymers. These are made by transforming greenhouse gases into sugars through the use of plants, which are then fermented to create the biopolymers. The end products are used in a wide range of industries, including food service, 3D printing, and more. For instance, they are used to create compostable coffee capsules and biobased filament for 3D printing.

NatureWorks LLC serves a diverse clientele, including businesses in the food service industry, manufacturers of 3D printing materials, and other companies seeking sustainable material solutions. The company operates in the global market of sustainable materials, a sector that is expected to grow significantly due to increasing environmental concerns.

The company's revenue is generated through the sale of its Ingeo biopolymers. It is also expanding its production capabilities, with a new 75kta fully integrated Ingeo polylactic acid (PLA) manufacturing complex set to be completed in Thailand by the second half of 2024.
