Cosa fa Birch Biosciences

Birch Biosciences engineers enzymes for plastic recycling using synthetic biology and machine learning. Our enzymes function as high performance “molecular scissors” that efficiently break down plastic polymers into chemical building blocks that can be used to manufacture high quality recycled plastic products. Today, plastic manufacturing is unsustainable and a major driver of climate change. Birch Biosciences is developing an economical end-to-end plastic recycling process that reduces carbon emissions by 70% and enables a circular plastic economy.

Recycle plastic using engineered enzymes

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build engineered enzymes that break down plastic polymers into chemical building blocks. These enzymes act like molecular scissors, making plastic recycling efficient enough to enable a circular plastics economy and reduce carbon emissions by about 70%.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in Portland, OR, and the company is based here now. After YC, we'll keep Portland as our base.

Explain your decision regarding location.

Portland has the synthetic biology talent and an environment supportive of climate tech. We're rooted here and want to build from a location that matches our mission and team.
