Health for me = health for the earth.
🙌🏽 Our vision for the future is that as people wake up to realizing that the things they put in their body determine their bodies health, that our culture will shift to read and understand ingredient labels on products as well. 💪🏽

Did you go to the farmer's market this weekend? We believe in a local economy. Choose to support your farmers whenever you can because it helps our soil, our community, our health, and our economy. Yum yum yum..

What's the answer: low tech or high tech? Pollima is using simple technologies to revolutionize materials for the built environment, yet there is still so much new technology to keep up with!

Women get to support women in overcoming things that we've learned that are not healthy or helpful. We want to be there to help support each other. If you are a woman and an entrepreneur, let's collaborate! Together we can accomplish a shift in our systems 🌎

Pollima would not be the same without our dedicated, passionate, and talented interns. Many of them came from @climatebase and we can't recommend them enough! We have been able to find a pool of candidates who are exactly what we are looking for! 🌎

Just got off the phone with a metalsmith in LA about creating a piece for our hydraulic press and working out some of the kinks of prototyping. He's a 74-year-old Jewish man who "weighs 200 pounds which is all passion" 😂 We love working with such energetic, spirited individuals!

Closing the loop on waste streams throughout our society will require all of us working together and finding new ways to repurpose old materials. We are turning hemp byproduct into furniture. What are you doing to help create the circular economy? 🤩🍩

[Pollima @pollima_co]

We are looking for a new marketing intern! Is it you? Or someone you know? Maybe looking for a fall semester internship? 😎👋 Would be happy to connect with them and see how we can collaborate!

[Pollima @pollima_co]

We don't do what we do because we care whether or not humanity survives on this tiny blue spaceship of a planet that we have. It's because we want to live a life in respect to the sacred beings who share this planet with us.

🌿 The most advantageous aspect of hemp is its portfolio of potential uses. Hemp can be used in over 25,000 products in nine submarkets including agriculture, automotive, construction, cosmetics, food and drink, furniture, paper, recycling, and textiles! 🌈

Our hydraulic press, Presston, has a mind and mouth of his own! If you would like to come visit Presston in Los Angeles, let us know! We'd like to schedule a time for people to come do an open house ⚙️🏠

Making eco-friendly furniture should be an Olympic sport! Like if you agree!

Get yourself a chair that can do both: store carbon AND look good while doing it. We've been messing around with our product's color palette — what do you think? ⁠🎨🪲🦋⁠

[Pollima @pollima_co]

We are serious about the circular economy and our supply chains, so we are sourcing local raw hemp in order to reduce our shipping emissions. 🌿🚛

[Pollima @pollima_co]
