[Impact]

Healthier materials, lighter footprint

Low-carbon manufacturing, upcycled residues, and non-toxic materials, driving the transition to a circular bioeconomy.

[Why we got started]

PHEE was founded to accelerate the transition from fossil-based materials to circular, bio-based alternatives for construction fit-outs, furniture, and product design. By transforming residues and other underutilized material streams into high-performance composite materials, we divert valuable resources from landfill and linear waste management, creating healthier spaces while reducing the embodied carbon of the built environment and everyday products.

How do we do that? By harnessing the power of nature.

[Our Impact]

Our impact is built on three principles

Low-Carbon Manufacturing

Low-carbon processes, from feedstock to finished board.

Upcycling Carbon-Rich Residual Streams

Carbon-rich residues given a second life instead of landfill.

Elimination of Unnecessary Chemicals

BPA-free and formaldehyde-free by design.

Together, they enable the creation of healthier, bio-based materials with lower embodied carbon, keeping valuable resources in use and advancing the transition to a circular bioeconomy.

Be Part of the Impact

Every material choice shapes the future. Together with industry, brands, architects, designers, manufacturers, waste management companies, policymakers, and feedstock providers, we are replacing fossil-based materials, building circular value chains, and unlocking the value of residues as a resource for a more sustainable future.

Innovation is a continuous journey, and collaboration is at its core. We welcome your ideas, expertise, and partnerships as we work together to develop better materials, strengthen circular value chains, and create lasting environmental and social impact.

Thank you for your part in the regenerative cycle.
