About Treeless

Treeless (Treeless AG) is an ETH Zurich spin-off pioneering microorganism-based biofabricated materials for industry. Co-founded by Adam Korczak and Patrycja Kucharczyk, the company combines biofabrication, biomimicry and advanced automation to create scalable, fossil-free material systems for cosmetics, adhesives, coatings and advanced composites. Using microorganisms and organic side-streams, Treeless develops biomaterials that help customers reduce fossil dependency and plastic pollution. The company is entering commercialization with industrial co-development projects and is building an automated pilot smart factory in Switzerland. In July 2026 Treeless closed an oversubscribed CHF 1.2 million financing round from business angels and family offices to accelerate industrialization and commercialization.
