Sun Bear Biofuture

We're creating sustainable world essentials: food, medicine, cosmetics and fuel. We're starting with a sustainable palm oil to help save the sun bear!

Sometimes you fail to appreciate what is on your doorstep. As one of our monthly outings we headed to @CherwellBoat for a lovely leisurely punt along the river in fabulous Oxford. Nicely anchored with a yummy meal and drinks at the @OxVictoriaarms

@IUK_Connect Thanks for the invite this year - we had an amazing time and look forward to 2025.

We had a great time at the #MRE2024 conference put on by @innovateuk. There was so much interest in our alternative to palm oil and it wasn't just due to bear costume 🙃

Big thanks to Zac over @TheMadHatterOx for a brilliant night had by the whole team. The cocktails were delicious and so much fun to make! The bears will be back.

It's the @MassChallengeCH awards ceremony tonight. It's been a fantastic programme. We've learned so much and take away a huge amount from the community of stakeholders involved from organisers to participants, mentors and corporate partners. Thank you!

[Sun Bear Biofuture @sunbearbio]

Thanks @thetimes for mentioning us alongside the wonderful @Carbon13_news. We're really proud to be working on an alternative to palm oil, which is the 3rd most impactful food on the planet that humans produce, after only meat and dairy.
