Redefining Everyday Materials

You deserve
better
products,
better ingredients,
better packaging.

 

For years, our everyday products came with a compromise.

Price over quality.
Performance over sustainability.
Convenience over health.

Various forms of chitin.

At Tydra Labs, we're reimagining everyday materials through chitin.

Chitin is a natural, biodegradable material found in crustaceans, insects, and even in mushrooms.

It’s strong, flexible, and resilient, enhancing other materials to make them tougher, longer-lasting, and higher performing.

Materials We're Transforming

Bioplastics

Chitin is a performance enhancer for bioplastics. It boosts strength, flexibility, and barrier protection while improving shelf life and product safety.

Our chitin offers:

Strength & Toughness – Reduces brittleness and cracks.

Barrier Performance – 2–5× stronger oxygen/moisture barrier.

Antimicrobial Protection – Naturally inhibits microbial growth.

High-Temperature Stability – Stable up to 150°C.

Drop-in Ready – Pre-hydrated and equipment-compatible.

Cosmetics

Chitin is a moisturizing film‐former and delivery agent for active ingredients. It enhances skin hydration, barrier repair, and controlled release of anti‐aging compounds.

Our chitin offers:

Consistency – Stable emulsifier with batch-to-batch quality.

Seamless Blending – 90% water content for easy incorporation.

Bioactive Protection – Antibacterial, antifungal, and film-forming.

Enhanced Delivery – Binds actives for improved performance.

Allergen-Free – Fully deproteinized; vegan formulations available.

Endless Possibilities

Chitin can be used across many other industries, including agriculture, textiles, and biomedical applications.
