Every year, over 430 million tons of fossil plastics are produced, most ending up polluting our ecosystems. Hera Materials, born from MIT and Latin America, is building the next generation of sustainable packaging.
From MIT to the global stage. At the South Summit Madrid 2025 Finals, Hera Materials showcased how material science, artificial intelligence, and the circular economy can transform packaging and fight climate change.
Hera Materials (formerly Atacama Biomaterials) joined the stage at Iceland Innovation Week to present Woodpack (WPk) – our AI-optimized, compostable, and paper-recyclable film that replaces traditional plastic packaging.
Hera Materials es una startup liderada por mujeres, nacida en el MIT, que está revolucionando la industria del packaging al reemplazar los plásticos de un solo uso con biomateriales inteligentes, reciclables como papel, compostables y con baja huella de carbono.
Across the globe, from the deserts of Atacama to national parks, lakes, rivers, and oceans, plastic waste is a growing environmental catastrophe. At Atacama Biomaterials, we’re taking a stand by turning this crisis into an opportunity for transformative change!
Somos una startup sustentable que transforma la industria del empaque con soluciones innovadoras basadas en biomateriales. Fundada en 2019, nuestra misión es reemplazar los plásticos tradicionales con materiales biodegradables, compostables y reciclables, ayudando a combatir la contaminación global y promover la economía circular.
