About the Solution
Atacama’s AI foundation model, MarieCurie, enables the design of composite materials that adhere to customer specs by using variable feedstock available from regional industrial waste. MarieCurie has enabled the design of WPk, Atacama’s flagship proprietary material, which is a recycled paper-based film that has already obtained certification for industry standard performance metrics for pharmaceutical and food packaging.
