About Calyxia

Calyxia, founded in 2015 through a collaboration between ESPCI Paris PSL and Harvard University, is headquartered in Bonneuil-sur-Marne, France. The company specializes in advanced microencapsulation technologies, offering sustainable and customizable solutions that enhance performance in demanding applications. Calyxia develops microcapsules that improve durability, stability, and aesthetics while supporting more eco-friendly formulations. Its Calyshield™ technology encapsulates functional additives such as lubricants and UV absorbers, providing long-lasting scratch resistance, hydrophobic properties, and enhanced UV protection. Catalyx™ microcapsules protect reactive materials like catalysts and cross-linkers, enabling extended pot life and the use of stable one-component systems in place of traditional two-component coatings. By controlling additive release and protecting delicate ingredients, Calyxia helps formulators overcome challenges such as premature degradation, poor dispersion, and reduced product lifespan. Its microencapsulation platforms deliver coatings with improved durability, functionality, and visual quality, while also aligning with growing sustainability requirements.
