AG Intellisense is an Australian deep tech company using bioinformatics to turn organic waste into nanocellulose — high-performance materials made from what the world throws away.
Traditional cellulose production relies on wood pulp. Meanwhile, organic waste from sugarcane, banana, and coffee industries is being burnt, buried, or sent to landfill. We see a feedstock, not a waste stream.
Our bioinformatics platform analyses the molecular composition of organic waste to identify high-value cellulose sources. Combined with green chemistry, we produce nanocellulose — biodegradable, high-performance materials for packaging, coatings, biomedical, food, and cosmetics industries.
We started with a simple conviction: organic waste is a resource in the wrong place. Our approach turns industry byproducts into advanced materials, reducing ecological burden while creating economic value for downstream producers. This is what a circular economy looks like in practice.
