Grant Description

Replica Biomaterials is revolutionizing the leather industry by developing a sustainable alternative to exotic crocodile leather.

Utilizing cutting-edge biotechnology, we produce biofabricated leather through microbial fermentation, creating proteins that replicate the intricate textures and durability of natural crocodile skin.
