Made of Air Raises $960,000 Grant Funding

Made of Air, a climate-focused materials company dedicated to combating environmental change, has successfully secured $960,000 in a recent funding round from investors. This capital injection underscores continued belief in its innovative approach to industrial materials. The company specializes in transforming waste biomass into high-value, carbon-negative materials. Made of Air's innovative materials are designed to directly replace fossil-based materials and other composites commonly used across various manufactured products. These materials are distinct because they are composed of carbon sequestered directly from the atmosphere, effectively achieving permanent CO2 removal. Their products can be thermoformed using standard industrial processes, making them suitable for millions of building and consumer product applications, thus transforming manufactured goods into engineered carbon sinks. This capital infusion highlights growing investor confidence in sustainable material solutions and the rapidly expanding climate technology sector. Made of Air plans to strategically deploy the newly secured funds to accelerate its operational scaling and advance product development initiatives. The investment is specifically earmarked for expanding production capabilities, enhancing manufacturing processes, and furthering research into new material applications, enabling broader adoption of their climate-positive materials in industrial supply chains. The company’s leadership emphasizes that this funding round is critical for enhancing its capacity to deliver impactful climate solutions at scale. Looking ahead, Made of Air aims to significantly increase the availability of its carbon-negative materials, contributing to a more sustainable industrial landscape and advancing its overarching goal of combating the climate crisis by offering scalable material innovations that actively remove CO2 from the atmosphere.
