Bordeiaș is an innovative eco-architectural project specializing in the construction of energy-efficient, sustainable homes built from straw bales and clay. At the core of its concept lies a harmonious synthesis of ancient building techniques and modern engineering solutions, designed to create healthy, comfortable living spaces.
​Key features and advantages include:
​Eco-Friendly Materials: Construction utilizes natural, renewable, and hypoallergenic components (straw, clay, and wood) that do not release toxic substances into the atmosphere.
​High Energy Efficiency: Straw-bale walls offer superior thermal insulation, drastically reducing heating costs in winter and keeping interiors cool during summer.
​Optimal Indoor Climate: Natural clay plaster automatically regulates room humidity, preventing mold growth and creating an ideal environment for well-being.
​Affordability and Durability: When properly plastered, these structures feature high fire resistance and long-term structural reliability at an accessible building cost.
​Bordeiaș promotes conscious and sustainable living by providing a healthy, nature-aligned alternative to conventional concrete construction — crafting beautiful, environmentally safe homes for the future.

Helios is a deep-tech company developing and producing advanced materials for high-impact industrial applications, with a primary focus on carbon capture and gas separation technologies. Leveraging Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs) and advanced material engineering, Helios develops high-performance solutions designed to capture CO₂ from industrial emissions while reducing the energy and cost requirements of conventional separation processes. The technology is particularly suited to carbon-intensive industries seeking scalable pathways to lower emissions and accelerate decarbonization. Beyond carbon capture, Helios’ advanced materials have applications across gas purification and separation, gas storage, and atmospheric water harvesting. By combining materials science, scalable production capabilities, and industry-driven R&D, Helios bridges the gap between laboratory innovation and real-world deployment, enabling more efficient, sustainable, and low-carbon industrial processes.

BCycle SA provides sustainable transportation solutions through a network of rental bicycles made from reclaimed plastic. Designed to reduce urban traffic congestion, carbon emissions and plastic waste, the service supports clean and affordable last-mile travel in South African cities. Addressing the gap in short-distance mobility, especially in Pretoria’s central areas, BCycle SA offers an alternative to cars, buses and taxis. In partnership with municipalities, including Tshwane, Johannesburg, and Polokwane, and research institutions such as UNISA and UJ PEETS, the company champions the use of bicycles as inclusive, low-carbon transport.

We-R-Eco provides plug-in modular biogas plants that convert organic waste and wastewater into renewable biogas and nutrient-rich fertilizer. Designed for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), these compact, plug-and-play units offer a low-cost, scalable solution to two pressing issues: ineffective waste management and the need for sustainable energy. The technology integrates selected microbes to optimize anaerobic digestion, resulting in higher biogas yields and reduced input needs. By displacing traditional fossil fuel-based energy and chemical fertilizers, the system reduces methane emissions, mitigates landfill overuse, and promotes circular economy practices. We-R-Eco enables off-grid energy access while supporting cleaner, climate-friendly operations across sectors.

The company developed a solution E-pacer 100 - a heavy-duty electric cargo bike designed to empower waste reclaimers and recyclers in informal and underserved communities. With a load capacity of 750–850 kg (including rider), the bike enables recyclers to cover long distances efficiently while transporting large volumes of collected waste. Targeting buy-back centers and SMMEs in South Africa’s low-barrier recycling economy, the E-pacer 100 offers an affordable, sustainable transport alternative to carts or trucks, which are often inaccessible or unaffordable. Developed by recyclers for recyclers, the bike supports dignified livelihoods, improves income margins, and addresses transportation challenges in the circular economy. It is a practical tool for those who currently rely on makeshift or unsafe transport methods in their daily work.

AB Farms developed a vertical hydroponic planter system designed to enable decentralized urban farming while addressing critical challenges such as land scarcity, water shortages and power instability. Unlike standard NFT hydroponic systems that require a continuous flow of water, this planter irrigates periodically, significantly reducing pump runtimes and overall energy use. This makes it especially well-suited for regions affected by load shedding, such as South Africa, where a constant power supply is not guaranteed. By decoupling irrigation from continuous energy inputs, the system allows crops to access mineral nutrients even during pump outages. Its vertical design also enables space-efficient food production in urban environments and eliminates the need for soil, making it adaptable to poor or nonexistent agricultural land. Targeted at helping communities to grow food closer to end users, the system improves food freshness and shelf life, while also reducing emissions and costs linked to long-distance transportation. With growing global populations and increasing pressure on water, energy, and arable land, this hydroponic solution offers a scalable and climate-resilient model for future food systems in emerging markets.

Khwezi Innovations addresses the environmental challenge of plastic waste caused by the improper disposal of disposable latex gloves. Commonly used in industrial, medical, and everyday settings, these gloves often end up in landfills and waterways, contributing to pollution and harming wildlife. In response, the company has developed a biodegradable 2-in-1 glove sanitizer that combines the functionality of a protective glove and hand sanitizer in a single, eco-friendly product. The glove provides up to one hour of protection, then peels off and dissolves in water within minutes, leaving no waste behind. Made from locally sourced organic materials in South Africa, the product supports environmental health while stimulating local green business. This solution offers a sustainable alternative to traditional gloves and contributes to reducing marine plastic pollution and landfill burden.
