Rice-husk supply
Explore a raw-material source for silica research.
Sustainable Partnerships
Good ideas grow through partnership.
We bring aerogel expertise. You bring materials, research or a product idea. Together, we can explore better insulation and new uses for valuable resources.

Let’s make better use of materials.
We’re looking for suppliers, researchers and manufacturers who want to improve insulation or find new uses for raw materials. Together, we can explore a practical way forward.
Rice-husk collaboration
Phetburi Inter Rice Co., Ltd.
Exploring how rice husks could become a source of useful materials.
Letter of Intent signed · 25 September 2025
Our signed Letter of Intent sets out an intention to explore rice-husk supply and possible transport support for our research.
The aim is to make more of the whole husk, from silica for materials to agricultural uses for what remains.
Transport
Discuss practical ways to move husks from mill to research site.
Silica research
Study how silica could be extracted and used in new materials.
Uses for what remains
Explore agricultural uses, including fertiliser applications.
