Xampla's natural replacements for plastic are based on a ground-breaking scientific breakthrough from the University of Cambridge. Learning from the way a spider makes silk, the Xampla team can engineer commonly available plant proteins into new forms, using low energy and with no chemical changes. Our materials can reduce the harmful impact of plastic in our environment.The strength and performance of Xampla's plant-protein materials is dependent on the precise structure. This project aims to characterize the materials to improve our understanding of the materials, deliver performance improvements and enable scale-up of our production. This innovative analysis work will be undertaken by NPL, with a collaboration between two highly skilled expert teams.

Xampla的塑料天然替代品是基于剑桥大学的一项突破性科学突破。通过学习蜘蛛吐丝的方式，Xampla团队可以将常用的植物蛋白质改造成新的形式，使用低能量，没有化学变化。我们的材料可以减少塑料对环境的有害影响。Xampla植物蛋白材料的强度和性能取决于精确的结构。该项目旨在表征材料，以提高我们对材料的理解，提高性能并扩大生产规模。这项创新的分析工作将由NPL进行，由两个高技能的专家团队合作。
