• Strong by Form

  Participated · Seed · Dec 2023

  Strong by Form develops Woodflow, a digitally molded structural biomaterial made from wood residues (e.g., radiata pine, fir) combined with resin to produce pieces that the company says reach concrete-level strength at a fraction of the weight and using less wood than cross-laminated timber. Founded in 2018 in Santiago by Andrés Mitnik (CEO), Jorge Christie (CPO) and Daniel Del Río (CTO), the company operates a plant in La Reina with four robots and a laser cutter and employs about 25 people. Its technology has been used in real projects, including a balsa wood cladding installation in the departures hall of Quito airport. The new capital is intended to fund a pilot plant in Spain by late 2027 to scale toward industrial construction applications. Financially, Strong by Form completed a roughly $5M seed in 2023 and has now advanced the first tranche of its third round.
