Solum is a B2B biomaterials innovator engineering functional bio-based chemistry for the polymer industry. We transform agricultural byproducts into high-performance bio-based materials that replace petrochemical ingredients one-for-one. Through targeted surface chemistry and material engineering, our technology enables natural inputs to integrate seamlessly into modern polymer systems while maintaining the performance manufacturers expect. Our flagship platform, Verdura™, is a multifunctional drop-in additive that serves as a plasticizer, reinforcing filler, processing aid, and antioxidant. It improves compatibility between renewable and conventional materials, enabling higher bio-content while reducing fossil dependence and chemical toxicity without compromising mechanical performance or processability. Built for industrial scale, Solum's chemistry integrates directly into existing rubber and plastic manufacturing systems, delivering a practical pathway to cleaner, higher-performing polymer formulations without new tooling, process changes, or performance tradeoffs.
