Sway, founded in 2020 and headquartered in the United States, is revolutionizing the materials landscape by developing compostable solutions made from seaweed. The company's slogan, "Materials that replenish the planet, from sea to soil," succinctly captures their mission to replace conventional plastics with sustainable, biodegradable alternatives.
Sway's innovative products match traditional plastic performance while integrating into existing systems, allowing businesses to adopt these solutions seamlessly. The company's materials derive from abundant, regenerative resources and eventually convert into soil, maintaining biological circularity.
In 2023, Sway received a $5.00M Seed Round investment from prominent investors, including The Helm, Alante Capital, BAM Ventures, Climate Tech Circle, Third Nature Investments, and Superorganism. The company's breakthrough approach has garnered significant acclaim, winning prestigious awards such as the TOM FORD Plastic Innovation Prize and recognition by top-tier media outlets.
