Evoco Ltd. is a material innovation company that develops a plant-based technology platform designed to defossilize the global material value chain. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Toronto, Canada, the company utilizes its proprietary chemistry to create high-performance, sustainable alternatives to traditional petrochemical-derived materials. Its core product line, including the patented FATES bio-foam, replaces fossil-based raw materials in industrial applications while maintaining performance standards. By integrating these scalable bio-materials into existing supply chains, Evoco enables manufacturers to produce consumer and industrial goods that are lower in carbon impact without sacrificing product quality. The company operates globally with facilities in Canada, China, Vietnam, and Italy, and holds multiple patents related to its material sciences.

Evoco’s solutions address the urgent need for decarbonization in the consumer goods and footwear sectors, where they have successfully replaced traditional foams in products for global brands such as Vans, Timberland, Keen, and Kodiak. Their materials are verified through third-party certifications, providing transparency regarding bio-content and carbon reduction for their partners. By focusing on industrial-scale production and continuous R&D, the company helps its clients transition away from carbon-intensive feedstocks. Having secured Series A funding to scale its operations, Evoco is currently expanding its material applications beyond footwear into new verticals, including automotive, furniture, bedding, and fashion, to support its mission of closing the loop on unsustainable material production.
