Naterra, Inc.
Naterra is a remediation services company that has
evolved out of 7 years of extensive research and
development, focused on harnessing the power of
microorganisms. Their technology biologically eliminates
contamination directly on site, in-situ or ex-situ. This
eliminates the contamination at the source. Their
competition using the old Burn or Bury methods of
remediation typically fail to completely eliminate the
contamination, often hauling it to other sites that have
the potential to be sources of contamination themselves.
Naterra's competitive advantage resides in the
technology's proprietary design, which degrades
contaminants in all the different stages of the
remediation or cleanup process. Their goal in attending
this mission is to get the word out that our technology
is generations ahead of the competition. Naterra can
solve contamination problems quicker, more cost
effectively, and more completely than traditionally
accepted methods.
