BamCore
United States of America
For over eight years BamCore has been privately working to develop a game changing technology that replaces traditional structural framing based on unsustainable wood studs with a stronger and more sustainable bamboo based panelized wall system. Now BamCore s products are driving a paradigm shift in Western building by creating an entirely new approach to residential and low rise commercial construction that will result in building stronger faster greener and less expensive buildings. And unlike any other building system BamCore s delivers a uniquely promising carbon footprint by reducing thermal bridging from wood studs which significantly improves thermal performance and by promoting direct carbon sequestration through the demand driven scalable expansion of timber bamboo planting.

Company
Wisdom Supply
United States of America
Wisdom Supply Co. was founded by Heather Itzla a plastic waste activist with grave concerns about the scope and scale of global plastic pollution. Realizing how back to school shopping encouraged the rote purchase of disposable plastics Heather approached a local school with an plan to significantly limit the amount of waste per student year after year. Heather stocked each classroom with waste less school supplies for students to use as needed. Picturing all of the student's families not walking out of big box office supply stores with countless plastic bags filled with plastic and vinyl destined to become landfill or pollute waterways compelled Heather to turn what started as an activist/volunteer effort into Wisdom Supply Co. a Benefit Corporation on a mission to reduce plastic waste on an exponential scale.
