Benthic Labs

Benthic Labs Benthic Labs is a synthetic biology company focusing on the synthesis of a new biopolymer consisting of natural filaments.

Our project involves the production of a new polymer using filaments made naturally by the Hagfish. These filaments are 100x thinner than a human hair and stronger than nylon, steel and even Kevlar. As the hagfish cannot be farmed economically, we propose synthesising the filament using bacteria to create a new biological material. This material will be lightweight, strong and as it is natural, wi

ll be completely biodegradable. What will our new biopolymer be used for? With demand for such a product in the military, medical and automobile sectors, the possibilities are endless!
