Stewardship of Earth’s material resources.
Beneficial reuse of commercial residues and design of safe and circular products lead to more efficient use of resources to allow people and planet to thrive together.
Greenleaf Advisors unlocks barriers to the beneficial reuse of materials, bringing sound science to regulatory policy, educating end markets, and assessing material impacts. Our experience across fields of interest makes us well suited to bridge innovative providers with markets, researchers, and investors.
We help clients with sustainable product design strategies, including use of safe materials, design for cyclability, and stewardship of energy and water resources, as well the commercialization and market development of their products.
