Their flagship offering is a pure, non-condensed lignin biopolymer, recognized for its versatile functional properties such as antioxidant, UV filtering, antimicrobial, and emulsifying capabilities. These biopolymers serve as sustainable ingredients in nutraceuticals and have potential applications in bioplastics, including polyester and polyurethane, which are designed to exhibit excellent mechanical and barrier properties while being chemically recyclable.

Businesses typically engage with Bloom through contractual agreements for the supply of their lignin-based products, with transactions structured around bulk orders and long-term supply agreements. The pricing strategy reflects the premium nature of their biopolymer solutions, marketed as high-performance alternatives to traditional petroleum-based materials. Specific pricing plans are tailored to client needs, ensuring competitive rates while emphasizing the sustainability benefits of their offerings.
