We’re redefining performance with renewable, transparent, and regenerative materials — proving that sustainability and excellence can coexist.
Lionfill is the next step in Taraxa’s mission to eliminate microplastics and petroleum-based rubber from the turf industry.
Founded in Norway, Taraxa is a materials science company dedicated to transforming extractive industries into regenerative systems — creating high-performance materials that give back to nature rather than take from it.
Lionfill was born from that vision. It’s a new brand under the Taraxa family, focused entirely on sustainable rubber granule solutions that deliver elite performance while significantly reducing environmental impact.
Where most artificial turf systems rely on fossil-derived plastics and synthetic rubber, Lionfill takes a different path — one built on natural chemistry, renewable resources, and transparent design.
Our team combines decades of expertise with a clear environmental purpose. Every step — from sourcing to formulation and testing — is guided by life-cycle thinking and measurable sustainability metrics.
We don’t just replace one ingredient with another; we redesign materials to ensure they meet real-world performance needs and safety standards for both players and ecosystems.

At Taraxa, we believe the transition to sustainable materials must happen without compromise — not less durable, not less safe, not less enjoyable to play on.
Lionfill proves that renewable materials can match — and even surpass — fossil-based alternatives.
Lionfill is our first commercial step in reimagining what sports surfaces can be. Today, it’s made from natural rubber derived from the rubber tree — a renewable, biobased material available at scale.
Tomorrow, we aim to produce it from rubber dandelion (Taraxacum kok-saghyz) — a plant with enormous potential for sustainable rubber and plastics production.
This journey represents more than a product evolution — it’s the foundation for a new, circular materials economy, where innovation and ecology move forward together.
Lionfill is built for today’s performance and tomorrow’s sustainability — because the future of sport deserves better materials.
We’re building a future where performance and sustainability are one and the same.
Join us in transforming how materials — and industries — give back to nature.
Pioneering plant-based materials for a cleaner,
microplastic-free future.
