BRIDGING
SYNTHETIC BIOLOGY
& ORGANIC CHEMISTRY
We blend nature
and technology to create
super materials
- Wood was engineered by Nature during 420 million years, but is mechanically weak, rots, burns, and is expensive to maintain. To make it the material of the 21st century, we have grounded our innovation on Nature’s intelligence augmented with technology.
- Woodoo is an augmented wood material: touch-sensitive and light-weight for Human-to-Machine Interfaces and mobility interiors, weatherproof and 3x stronger to build tomorrow’s wooden skyscrapers. Leveraging unused resources, we enhance low-grade wood into high-tech materials.
PROPERTIES
3x sturdier than wood
weatherproof
translucent
low CO2 footprint
low-grade species compatible
fire resistant
dimensionally stable
touch-sensitive
WE ARE BIO-ENGINEERING
THE NEXT GEN WOOD
We transform natural wood
into a touch-sensitive surface
We make it translucent,
moldable and recyclable
WE STAND FOR
THE CONSUMER INDUSTRY
Our multi-patented breakthrough technology creates an augmented wood that is strong and moldable: for the first time, wood panels can be bent into any shape without breakage. It allows radically new aesthetics for consumer electronics, connected objects, smartphones…
- Woodoo’s unprecedented new material can be used like touchscreen when connected to electronics.
WE STAND FOR
THE AUTOMOTIVE INDUSTRY
Driven by the emergence of autonomous driving, as decorative interior trim parts in mobility become interactive, we develop innovative surfaces for the premium car segment and tomorrow for all means of transportation (trains, buses, jets, boats…).
- As an alternative to glass and plastics, Woodoo offers an immersive on-demand information solution.
WE STAND FOR
THE CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY
Construction materials are running out: we are facing a global shortage of raw materials (steel, sand) and an unprecedented urbanization boom. Being the only construction material that grows by itself and absorbs CO2, wood could be the right solution for the future of building.
- Woodoo’s materials are needed at a time of environmental strain to build faster, cleaner and higher.
