Plantd: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)

At Plantd, we think that wood doesn't necessarily have to come from trees and that in order to preserve life as we know it on our planet and ensure a future for civilization, carbon-negative materials are necessary. To ensure that atmospheric carbon absorbed in the field is stored inside the walls and floors of new homes, we are driving a shift to materials created from renewable grass and developing the factory of the future.

About FundedIQ's Plantd Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Plantd is left off this page rather than filled in.
