Mari-Ann strongly interested in innovation, new materials, and especially solutions for a greener future.

With Gelatex Technologies, they are aiming to accelerate the use of bio-based nanofibers in the world in applications like cultured meat, tissue engineering, wound care, filtration, or even energy storage.

Their patent-pending nanofiber production technology enables over 90% cost reduction and high throughputs that were never possible before to achieve when producing bio-based nanofibers.

This way they make the use of bio-based nanofibers accessible in applications where it was just not worth it before.
