Our vision
We see the future through sustainability and materials circularity. We see a world with bio-based materials that have substituted fossil-based plastics.
The mission of Lignoflow is to become a leading technology provider for sustainable lignin-based materials with unique properties.
Lignoflow offers tailormade solutions to accelerate introduction of lignin-based formulations to the market.
The LignoFlow® technology
-
Facilitates lignin processing in water-efficient, high-consistency and flowable gel state.
-
Works for most technical lignin grades available in nearly 2 million tons/year.
-
Does not require any covalent chemical reactions.
-
Dust-free processing and mass transfer.
-
Readily scalable; compatible with existing industrial processes and circular bio-economy concepts.
Lignin is the most abundant natural aromatic polymer found in trees and other green plants.
Lignoflow has developed patent-pending technology for the processing of lignin into scalable bio-based materials for a sustainable future.
The basis for LignoFlow® formulations and products is the method of producing high-consistency lignin dispersions and gels without any organic solvents.
We are seeking partnerships with the forest industry and manufacturing companies committed to substituting fossil-based materials with renewable bio-based ingredients.
About us
Lignoflow Technologies AB is a spin-off company from Stockholm University. Building on years of research and development work on lignin-based materials the co-founders established the company in 2022 based on a patent-pending technology.
