Adsorbi, a Swedish company developing bio-based air purification materials, raised €360K in seed funding. Backers included Metsä Spring, Chalmers Ventures, and Jovitech Invest.
The company will use the funds to develop its cellulose-based air purification material, which can be used in air filters and odour removal products. Adsorbi's material is bio-based and sustainably sourced, making it a more sustainable alternative to activated carbon.
Adsorbi is led by CEO Hanna Johansson and is based in Gothenburg. The company is a spinout from Chalmers University of Technology.
Adsorbi's air purification material is effective at removing a wide range of pollutants, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), particulate matter, and odours.
Adsorbi's material is also more energy-efficient than activated carbon, making it a more sustainable choice.
Adsorbi is targeting a number of markets for its air purification material, including the odour removal industry, the art conservation industry, and the air filtration industry.
