Company Overview

Mars Materials, Inc. PBC is a venture-backed carbon utilization startup that is commercializing a technology to produce acrylonitrile (AN), a key industrial chemical, from captured carbon dioxide and bio-based feedstocks. The company's mission is to reverse humanity's industrial carbon footprint by sequestering captured CO2 into long-lived products like carbon fiber and wastewater treatment chemicals. Developed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and licensed by Mars, the nitrilation process technology is designed to be a lower-cost, lower-emission, drop-in replacement for the incumbent petrochemical-based production method. The company, a public benefit corporation founded in 2019, was originally based in Oakland, California, but relocated its headquarters and pilot operations to Houston, Texas, in 2023.
