About Regenesis:

We are a revolutionary plastic technology company on a mission to create the most innovative and advanced recycled materials for the eyewear and fashion industry globally.

Powered by our materials, our goal is to create net-zero products that clean and decarbonize our planet using science, nanotechnology, and AI.

We retrieve plastic waste from rivers and mangrove forests in Indonesia, combine it with post-consumer plastic waste and captured CO2 from discarded coconut shells, using ECOFUSION, our proprietary technology,  and re-engineer it into sustainable nanocomposites that match the mechanical properties of existing virgin materials, at a lower cost.

We began our journey in 2019 as a D2C brand under PANGEA Movement with a focus on sustainable outdoor gear and funding cleanup operations. We've since expanded into the B2B sector with Regenesis, a new materials vertical. This expansion allows us to extend our circular regenerative model to an industrial scale, to serve other companies. 

We launched Regenesis at Mido, Milan in February 2025. We gained immense interest from major brands in the industry, signing more than 70 LOIs in one week with all the largest companies, including Safilo, Marchon, Inspecs, Luxottica, and others, who confirmed their interest to adopt our materials for some of the largest brands in the industry under their portfolios.

Our vision is to accelerate the transition to a regenerative circular economy that cleans the planet and to create the most sustainable supply chain for the fashion and outdoor industries worldwide.

By using our materials, any brand will become planet-positive and truly sustainable without greenwashing.
