LabCycle is the world's first company to recycle hazardous plastic waste from laboratories (service) as well as the first to create 100% recycled laboratory consumables (product). Working with public and private labs, we are driving the circular economy of lab plastics to reduce the 5.5m tonnes of lab waste annually. A few highlights of our progress to date: • Proven impact - saving 90% of CO2 emissions & 93% energy compared to current alternatives: incineration and autoclave (LCA available upon request). • Technological validation creating the world's first 100% circular lab consumables including petri dishes, test tubes and more. • Secured commercial contracts with the NHS, several private companies and also universities. We are raising £1.5m to scale our patent pending technology to serve our growing demand after over 150+ organic expressions of interests following our feature in BBC news. The funding will establish the first automated decontamination system of our network, recycling over 350 tonnes annually, saving over 1000+ tonnes of carbon.

Cocoon is a climate technology platform that develops sustainable technology to manage industrial waste through carbon capture. It develops sustainable construction materials by transforming industrial steelmaking byproducts into low‑carbon cement substitutes used in concrete and cement production. The company’s core technology converts electric arc furnace (EAF) slag—a byproduct of modern steelmaking—into a supplementary cementitious material called LoopCem, which integrates with existing infrastructure to partially replace traditional Portland cement and reduce embodied carbon in building materials. Its process accelerates slag cooling and granulation to produce a high‑performance SCM with consistent reactivity and mechanical performance that aligns with industry standards, enabling cement and concrete producers to blend LoopCem into their formulations without major operational changes.
