Twelve
A world of things made from air
How does it work?
Twelve makes CO2Made® chemicals, materials and fuels with their carbon transformation technology that replicates photosynthesis at industrial scale. Just like a plant in nature, it transforms CO2 into useful products with just water and renewable energy as inputs, and producing only water and oxygen as outputs. No fossil fuels, no new emissions, no trade-offs. They can make thousands of chemicals and fuel products from air that today are made from oil.
Why is it needed?
Carbon-based compounds are the foundation of our modern world. They give your favorite running shoes their spring, they also give them their carbon footprint. The problem is, we get this carbon today from fossil fuels in the form of petrochemicals. Now, we don't need fossil fuels to make essential products, we can make them from CO2.
How does it improve life?
Twelve are implementing their technology with the world’s biggest brands to replace the petrochemicals in their products and supply chains with CO2Made® chemicals, materials and fuels, eliminating emissions from thousands of everyday products and accelerating the path to carbon zero. So far, Twelve has partnered up with companies like Alaska Airlines, Microsoft, PANGAIA, Tide, NASA and Mercedes among others.
