Jason Robinson is a chemical engineer, born innovator and technology lover, who has been involved in the climate-tech sector ever since the start of his career. He is also the CEO of Evoco, a clean-tech innovation company based in Canada, that develops plant-based chemistry to replace petrol-based materials, among others plastics. The company's mission focuses on closing the carbon cycle in the most natural way, not only by using materials from plants, but also ensuring them to be compostable.

Therefore, Evoco provides a bio-based chemistry platform to serve multiple product needs. They work closely together with product designers, brands and manufacturers to make sure that they can integrate in the most efficient way with the consumer goods value chain to fully close the loop. Doing so, they also established an own ecological footwear brand called Fates. All this as a part of Evoco’s sustainability mission to create new polymers from plants with the same applicability as their counterparts made from oil, but future-proof and sustainable. That is why Evoco stands for disruptive innovations with fewer disruptions of the value chain.

In this podcast, you will also learn more from Jason about plant-based materials, and the important aspects to consider when developing sustainable material concepts out of bio-based plastics.
