Evoralis

Co-Labs by Journey, NIAB, 93 Lawrence Weaver Road, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, CB3 0LE, United Kingdom

Overview

Evoralis is an early-stage biotechnology spin-out from the University of Cambridge focused on solving plastic waste through enzymatic recycling. Its proprietary ultrahigh-throughput screening platform discovers and optimizes plastic-degrading enzymes up to 1,000 times faster than existing methods, dramatically accelerating candidate selection. By breaking plastics into their fundamental monomers, the company aims to enable closed-loop reuse of materials and foster a sustainable circular economy. The newly raised seed capital will be used to scale the screening technology, hire additional scientists and engineers, and broaden the range of plastics addressed. Evoralis intends to translate its lab advances into commercially viable recycling solutions for multiple plastic types. Although still pre-revenue, the company’s $3.2 million in funding provides a solid runway to reach key R&D milestones and validate its technology for industry partners.
