Francis Drouin, parliamentary secretary to federal Agriculture Minister Marie-Claude Bibeau, said the program was oversubscribed and that projects had to be chosen that were feasible and with a strong connection with agriculture. SixRing is developing its technology to use with a wide range of inputs, from unused straw and corn husks, to bark, wood chips and pine beetle-infested wood.

The funding will help the company scale up over the course of two years and further develop new products and increase production. It will partner with other companies on venture operations to expand their portfolio, and potentially licence the technology in the future.
