Product

Teraform develops materials intended to help agriculture cope with water scarcity. Its SuperSponge product is a naturally derived absorbent polymer mixed into soil to retain water and release it as conditions become dry.

The Tokyo startup is working on field validation and commercialisation. Its approach targets the soil around crop roots, aiming to help plants establish themselves and reduce the work and cost of irrigation.
