About Us

Citrimer was founded by two University of Michigan PhD students, Anthony Berardi and Ben Swanson. Anthony and Ben are both materials chemists and engineers who have spent the last decade thinking about new materials design. We're reimagining how synthetic materials are manufactured through novel feedstock selection, with scalability and cost as our first priority.
