Rubi Laboratories

Rubi Laboratories is a biotechnology startup with a mission to turn carbon emissions into natural carbon-negative textiles. Founded in 2020, the company envisions a future where human prosperity and economic growth have a positive impact on the planet. They have developed a cell-free enzyme flow biocatalysis platform that unlocks CO2 as a natural resource for creating critical materials in a cost-competitive manner. Their initial focus is on producing carbon-negative textiles for the fashion industry, offering the same quality as traditional textiles but at half the cost of cotton at scale. Additionally, their production process is completely carbon-negative and has a neutral impact on water and land use. Rubi Laboratories is endorsed by a number of prominent investors including Talis Capital, Plug and Play, Incite.org, Necessary Ventures, and Climactic VC, who collectively participated in a $5.15M Venture Round investment in December 2023. The company's strong backing and pioneering approach to sustainability make it a compelling player in the biotechnology, manufacturing, and sustainability industries. With an unwavering commitment to high-quality science, impact, transparency, and purpose, Rubi Laboratories is positioned to make a significant mark on the future of sustainable textile production.
