Jesse Henry

Founder & CEO

In 2020, Jesse Henry founded Heartland, a vertically integrated natural fiber producer. Getting sustainable materials into commercial products meant navigating chemicals, packaging, agriculture, food, automotive, building materials, and beauty supply chains that were slow, fragmented, and expensive to navigate.

After leaving Heartland, Jesse started ALT LABS to build a sustainability platform. Material Transition is the piece of this platform that unlocks sustainable production. Manufacturers can now gain control over their material flow.

The people who are consciously making changes to their materials, packaging, products, and waste are the ones leading their industries. We created this platform to develop Material Transition Architects across every industry.

"Building sustainable supply chains should take days, not decades. We built the infrastructure to make that happen."
