TENSEI - Investment Opportunity
Tensei is a biotechnology company developing products and IP from alternative (agricultural) fibre streams, notably annual crop waste and grasses
Our strength lies in our alternative fibre knowledge and associated supply and ability to commercialise product. We build business and consumer confidence in the use of these fibres across multiple markets in multiple industries. The impact is far reaching; from delivering simple, recyclable consumer packaging to providing farmers with a new revenue source from their unwanted crop waste .We have the capability to add considerable value to the accelerating bio-economy.
Tensei is a company of value in the future because of climate change.

THE IDEA
Products & Services
Products:
1. paper/moulded pulp-based products such as specialty papers for food contact /packaging and construction industry.
2. Bio-waste and plastic pellets for injection moulding. (close to market).
3. New light weight, strong material for bio-composites. (in development).
Services:
R&D solutions for companies wanting to remove single use plastic or non-biodegradable products
R&D Solutions for companies with bio-waste of their own (farmers or food producers) to find opportunities to valorise it either for their use or to develop new markets from.
Future Services: Platform to Provide supplier access to stable and consistent fibre supply (pulp) and producers to sell bio-waste
Problem Solved
Key issues throughout the supply chain.
Downstream – Brand owner and retailer
Consumer pressure to be more sustainable, legislation (plastic tax) and additional pressure to reduce their carbon emissions that they have publicly committed to by 2025/2030 are forcing them to look urgently at new solutions.
Upstream - Plastic and Paper Producers
Raw material constraints from plastic non gratis to paper Industry concerns of a virgin fibre scarcity resulting from consumer demand , new pressures from the plastic convertors , active de-forestation in the Amazon and a Beetle that is decimating softwood stocks .
Products and materials from these annually renewable bio-wastes help mitigate.
Revenue Model
1.Products sold per tonne or unit or, if developed with a customer, possible profit share.
2. R&D Services fee
3. Licensing IP – 2-3.5% licence fee to produce products developed by Tensei ( papers etc)
4. Platform access ( future) – supplier access fee and % commission on pulps sources through the platform.
All repeat orders.
We are currently awaiting order for absorbent paper to go into soft fruit punnets for 4 multiples, having agreed first to market with the UK’s largest fruit marketing desk and finished proof of concept. We have also agreed first to market with a UK laminate supplier for the laminate paper.
