Danimer Scientific was started in 2004, located in Bainbridge GA We are a global leader in Biopolymer research, development & commercialization We produce 100% certified biodegradable and compostable replacements for many types of petroleum based plastics that are both renewable & sustainable Lead by example – practicing a truly “Renewable & Sustainable” model Contributing to the new Bio Economy Insert Title of Presentation Bainbridge, GA Plant Here danimerscientific.com www.danimerscientific.com

Petroleum at a Glance

• 685 billion lbs of plastics made each year

• 35 billion water bottles discarded each year

• Average working life of a plastic bag is 15 minutes

• Only 8% of plastics in North America are recycled

• Oceans are contaminated with tiny plastics particles
