This document describes an advanced materials technology platform called "Frozen Dirt" that can be used to create sustainable and biodegradable foam-like materials for applications such as environmental cleanup, insulation, packaging, and fertilizers. The process involves freezing a mixture of polymers and clay under controlled conditions to form unique open-cell structures. Initial markets for these materials are estimated to be worth over $40 billion annually. The company is seeking funding to further develop and commercialize this technology globally with the goal of creating more sustainable solutions that address issues like pollution, waste, and inefficient materials.
