Symmetry Wood

Climate First Bank is now Symmetry Wood's primary bank! We're glad to be working with this great B Corp and 1% for the Planet member to ensure that Symmetry has as few Scope 3 emissions as possible. Little known fact: the cash holdings and banking practices for Google, Meta, Microsoft and Salesforce would boost those companies’ total emissions by 91 percent to 112 percent. https://lnkd.in/gM-4Y-FC Thank you to Ayana Elizabeth Johnson for drawing attention to this issue in her book, What if We Get it Right. https://lnkd.in/gbnCgJEE

The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has granted Symmetry Wood its first ($100,000) Phase I SBIR contract to begin upcycling more types of food waste into high-performance wood! Together with the EPA, we will expand operations in Los Angeles, showcasing more #biodesign and #sustainability innovation with the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI), GT's Living Foods, and Angel City Brewery. https://lnkd.in/empbzvSk

We're closing out 2024 with a final reflection on the premiere of the first Pyrus™ guitar fretboard! In completing this major milestone, Symmetry has also finished its first major pilot (in collaboration with the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI)). Thank you once again to everyone involved, including Irene Diaz, Carolyn Cardoza, German Vazquez Rubio, Armand Arnazzi, Erik Johnson, David W., Lucy Silberman Singer, Nate Black, Andres Wikkeling, Nick Paonessa, Jared Fligelman, Jordan Berry, Karlista Maroney, Molly Crete, Nick Albert, Lauritz David Jr, Idris A., and Mark House. 2025 is set to be an even bigger year! We'll have a major announcement to share on that soon. Happy New Year everyone!

Imagine a world where we don’t have to cut down trees to get wood. 🍃 That future is closer than you think! We’re using waste from kombucha brewing to create a biobased wood product — no forests harmed. Check it out December 10th as we debut the first fretboard made from this wood alternative!

Let’s meet at the HackSummit! 🗽 Right after Symmetry Wood's concert on December 10th at the Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator (LACI), Gabe Tavas and Tim Keating will head to New York this December 12-13th for the premier US edition of the @HackSummit dedicated to Climate Deep Tech. Come and visit our booth to learn more about Pyrus™, the revolutionary new wood from food waste that is free of tree cutting and petrochemicals. We’re looking forward to catching up with 300 investors, founders and operators to discuss what's new and next in Climate DeepTech at Newlab, Brooklyn. If you’ll be there too, we'd love to hear from you. See you at #HackSummitNYC
