Explore Materials Made from Organic By-Products
Ecosphere Organics transforms food and organic waste into high-performance, bio-based materials for design, manufacturing, and material innovation.
Our sample kits are designed for hands-on exploration, giving you access to a curated selection of materials across different textures, formats, and applications.
Choose Your Sample Kit
Select from four material categories based on your application needs:
Flexible Materials
Bio-based, leather-like and film & translucent sheets with flexibility and texture suitable for soft goods and product applications. Perfect as a base material for products or for further customization through coatings, embossing, lamination, and other finishing techniques.
- Approx. 6″ × 4″ samples
- Varying textures and finishes
- Applications: accessories, fashion, product surfaces
Rigid Materials
Durable composite materials with structural properties for hard goods and prototyping.
- Approx. 6″ × 6″ samples
- Dense, compressed and/or sheet formats
- Applications: panels, components, structural elements
Pigments (<100 Microns)
Fine bio-based powders processed for color, coatings, and material blending.
- 25g per sample
- Smooth, fine particle size
- Applications: paints, coatings, composites, inks
Coarse Industrial Powders (100–500 Microns) & Fibers
Raw bio-based materials for use as fillers, additives, and composite inputs.
- ~50g per sample (larger sample size can be requested)
- Coarse particle size
- Applications: bioplastics, composites, material development
What’s Included
Each kit contains a curated selection of 6-16 material samples within your selected category.
All samples are:
- Labeled by material type and feedstock
- Produced in small batches
- Designed for testing, prototyping, and evaluation
Materials may vary slightly in color, texture, and finish due to their natural origins and batch-based production.
