The work was made by Nesie Junyi Wang, a 4th year photography student at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague. She was inspired by the flame retardant properties of Kaumera.

Kaumera takes a big step forward. Four Dutch water authorities are working together in a new cooperative responsible for production. A new startup BV takes charge of market operations. This BV, Kaumera Sales and Services BV, is owned 50/50 by Royal HaskoningDHV and the Kaumera cooperative, taking the production of this biobased raw material into a new phase. Market interest in Kaumera has been demonstrated in recent years. It is now time to accelerate the development with more capacity and focus.
