Congrats Class of 2026! 🎉

New Design High School’s graduating fashion show. Such creativity. I’m inspired in my own practice by these kids who’ve upcycled materials to create visionary pieces and collections.

The future of fashion is here!

Such a wonderful night gathering so many inspiring women. Thank you @anothertomorrow for generously hosting. We have been gathering together for 9 years and I am always so inspired and in general awe of all the exceptional women who continuously show up and do this very hard and emotional work.

As we enter the New Year, we want to reflect on our journey in 2024.

While every year has its challenges, we see them as opportunities for positive change. And as we reflect, we love to see that sentiment shine through. Last year was full of new beginnings, growth, community, and collaboration.

We started the year by launching our rebrand from Bucha Bio to Rheom Materials, better representing the flow and form of our collaborative approach and the physical formation of our biobased materials. A big thank you to @votaaano and @the.branx. We also began developing Benree, our biopolymer resin, which has earned a USDA Certified Biobased Product Label. We explored new colors and complex part geometries with Benree, creating 100% biobased guitar picks used by the alt-rock band @guster at their Houston show.

Shorai, our biobased leather alternative, also made big strides in 2024. We collaborated with @millun_studio to create 'The Unity Bag', @luckynelly_berlin to create the "Star" mini purse, and @cact.us.design.cntr to create a shoe displayed at @complexcon. A special thank you to everyone on those projects @christinerochlitz, Emily Miller, @mxatrx, and @txrxlabs @cactusjackfoundation. We are proud to share that our technical team increased Shorai's biobased content from 87% to 93% in 2024, and we plan to reach 100% biobased content by the end of 2025. Additionally, our team explored new colorways and larger production widths, officially marking the start of our partnership with Bixby International.

In 2024 we set off on a mission to share our story, and we'd like to thank everyone who helped us get there: @nataliejharms, @innomaphou, @fox26houston, @kathyvarol, @thomdolan1, @_studio_nima_, @reverb_org, @materialinnovation, @vikkilenola, our amazing team, our wonderful investors, supporters, and so many more.

Thank you to everyone who made 2024 a success; we are so grateful for your support. We can't wait to see what's in store in 2025!

We had a great time at Texworld LA last week!

Congratulations, @megan1beck1 for a great job on the “The Rise of Biobased Materials” panel. Thank you for representing the @rheommaterials team!

“It was great to be part of such an illuminating panel with the opportunity to dive deep into how we can push next-gen biobased materials into the mainstream. The balance between performance and sustainability will be a driving factor and it’s clear that collaboration is key to making this vision a reality.” - Megan Beck, Rheom Materials

A special thank you to @thomdolan1, @materialinnovation, and @texworldnyc for the opportunity to showcase our materials and speak on the panel. Until next year!

Our very own @thomdolan1 gave an exciting presentation to the EMiLUX masters program at @parsonsschoolofdesign this week! ✨

Taught by an internationally recognized faculty with industry backgrounds and extensive connections with luxury brands, the interdisciplinary program combines creativity, innovation, analytics, collaboration, and management courses to provide professionals with the strategic tools and skills necessary to foster a culture of change in the business of luxury.

We’re so proud to have the opportunity to inspire these students to join our mission to accelerate the next-gen materials revolution! 🚀

@hermes, @alexandermcqueen, @ralphlauren and @stellamccartney are just some of the leading luxury brands that are partnering with innovative leather alternative companies as part of a growing shift towards more sustainable options offered to their customers.

Our research shows that 78% of consumers are willing to pay the same or more for next-gen materials, so it's up to the incredible designers at fashion brands to make products that consumers will love! 😍

At MII we support brands to invest in, source from, and partner with next-gen materials companies.
