About us

We are aevoloop – pioneers in “Planet Proof Plastics”. Contrary to common belief, plastics remain indispensable where no alternative exists : from critical medical devices to protective equipment. At the same time, we redesign polymers at the molecular level—making them lightweight, robust, and cost-effective, yet sustainable, 100 % circular, and biodegradable.

Our mission is clear : we believe that plastics are vital for a livable future. That’s why we develop next-generation materials for a genuine circular economy—Planet Proof Plastics.

Our work is guided by five values : Pioneering , Conscientious , Disruptive , Transparent , and Contributive . We combine the rigor of responsible research with playful innovation and act as a trusted catalyst for sustainable material solutions.
