Our Story

Three siblings, one long horizon.

Tomas, Marga and Daniel Mateos Werner grew up between the UK and Europe, raised on a simple idea: build things that outlast you.

So they pooled the family's capital behind one conviction — the most durable returns come from businesses that close the loop, turning waste back into worth.

We move slowly on purpose. We measure success in forests left standing and tonnes kept out of landfill, not just in pounds returned.

London, United Kingdom

Investment Philosophy

We back the materials that the world keeps reusing.

Our thesis is deliberately narrow. Three materials, each one where circularity isn't a marketing line — it's the business model.

Recycled Paper

Fibre that lives many lives. We back the mills and converters turning recovered paper into packaging — sparing the forests that virgin pulp consumes.

Recycled Plastic

From waste stream to feedstock. We fund the sorting and reprocessing that keeps polymers in use — and out of the ocean.

Responsible Wood

Renewable, when stewarded well. We back sustainable forestry and engineered wood — a material that stores carbon while it builds.

The Family

The people behind the patience.

Not a fund with a family name attached — a family, investing as one.
