SELLING TO SKIN CARE + PARTNERSHIPS IN SOLAR

Skin care and cosmetics Solar energy Future applications

Natural and efficient:• Moisturizer• Absorbent• UV filter

Sales started in autumn 2018. Customers:

Enhances efficiency with at least: • 4 % for silicon based solar panels • 38 % for DSSC (Dye sensitized solar

cells)

Long-term opportunities in e.g. • Lithium ion batteries, 40 %

increased capacity of anode• Biosensors

• UV filter in e.g. plastic films3 testing partnerships, each needing 200 kg -10 tons/year. In discussions with 6 more actors.
