United States of America

Air Company is the world’s leading carbon utilization company, creating consumer and industrial products from carbon dioxide (CO2). The company’s patented and proprietary Carbon Conversion Reactor mimics photosynthesis, using only air (CO2), water and sun (renewable energy) to create carbon-negative alcohols and fuels from CO2.

With three consumer products (AIR Vodka, AIR Hand Sanitizer, and AIR Eau de Parfum) brought to market thus far, Air Company is moving towards world-scale impact with other innovations to come. Amongst a number of accomplishments, Air Company has received $40MM in venture capital funding to date and won an incredible amount of highly acclaimed awards: TIME Best Inventions, Fast Company World Changing Ideas, the NASA CO2 Conversion Challenge, R&D World’s R&D 100, and the Keeling Curve Prize, among others.

Air Company is the future of carbon technologies. It is redefining what a regenerative future that works with nature, rather than against it, could look like.
