Exactly the same but altogether different.
With Plantd materials every new home and building on earth is an untapped opportunity to lock away atmospheric CO2 and counter climate change.
A new future is growing.
We're turning the world's fastest-growing grasses into carbon-built products, starting with building materials.
They drop in. Lock away atmospheric carbon. And change everything.
Civilizations advance at the speed of material innovation. Timber, steel, and concrete enabled progress and served humanity well, but today they are the problem, not the solution. Continuing to build with these materials accelerates climate change and promises to impede progress by threatening our collective future on this planet. Every new building erected only makes the problem worse.
We envision a world built from grass. A world where buildings no longer cause climate change but are central to the solution. A world where homes and buildings are stronger, lighter, more durable, and more affordable. Where their walls and structures lock away vast amounts of carbon dioxide pulled from the atmosphere. A world that stands in balance with nature. We call this new age of material innovation Mass Biomass.
The Plantd Solution
Where we started
Create quickest and most efficient way to pull CO2 from the atmosphere—and lock it away.
Maximize Carbon Capture
Cultivate Arundo Donax, the fastest growing renewable grass on earth and ideal for maximizing carbon capture.
Create factory of the future
Invent factory of the future—fully automated, low-emissions production technology—to turn grasses into durable building materials.
Useful Carbon Removal
Transform construction industry with Plantd building materials, a new age of material innovation we call Mass Biomass.
Our structural panels go where wood goes. And then some.

Factory of the Future
We reimagined the assembly line for engineered building materials. The result is a leap forward in production technology to reduce carbon emissions and costs and improve material performance.
We started with the question, “What’s the fastest way to remove carbon from the atmosphere and turn it into high-performance products?”
Cultivate the fastest growing perennial grasses on earth.
We tested every viable material. Perennial grass won.
Massive annual yield
Superior materials performance
Financially attractive to farmers
Unrivaled carbon capture
Invent automated, low emissions production technology – the factory of the future.
70% of the carbon that enters our factory is locked away in the building materials that leave it.
Modular
100% Electric
Low Carbon
Low fixed and operational cost
Multi-product capable (panels, studs & CLT)
Transform renewable grass into durable building materials.
Start with structural panels that outperform wood on every metric—cost, carbon, and performance.
Design for drop-in replacement. Plantd products install exactly the same as the legacy products they replace.
Plantd impact at scale
Compared to a medium-sized wood OSB mill
15,000 acres
of grass plantations vs.
140,000 acres
of managed timber lands
- Concentrated supply chain
- Lower cost structure
- Cheaper than trees
- More carbon captured
We produce the same amount of material
but of superior quality using 9x less land.
Let's leave the forests to do what they do best, sequester carbon. Elon Musk has said, "Trees are not the solution." And it's true—we did the math.
We are SpaceX engineers, farmers, scientists, and storytellers...
We 're here to build something that matters.
