Belfast-based net zero innovation company CATAGEN has received £1m of funding from the Growth Finance Fund which will be used to accelerate the growth of the business.
CATAGEN's mission is to clean and decarbonise the air. Its cutting-edge net zero technologies are focused on helping hard to decarbonise sectors such as heavy industry, marine, aviation, mobility and agriculture to meet 2050 targets.
Founded over a decade ago by Dr Andrew Woods and Professor Roy Douglas, the company has worked with some of the world's best known automotive brands to optimise catalytic convertor development and reduce harmful tailpipe emissions.
Over the past two years it has secured a combined £21.5m in project funding including seven awards by the UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero to develop advanced climate technologies under its ClimaHtech brand.
