About Us
Helicoid Industries was founded to bring nature-inspired fiber architecture from the lab to the real world.
Backed by years of biomimicry research and leading global partnerships, our patented Helicoid™ technology delivers stronger, lighter, and more durable composites for multiple industries.
Inspired by Nature
Nature evolved highly efficient structures with outstanding toughness, impact resistance, and durability.
The "smasher" mantis shrimp inspired our Helicoid™ architecture, mimicking its helicoidal layered design to dramatically improve performance in composites.
Our Technology results in
