Newlight Technologies, Inc. is a Huntington Beach, California biotechnology company founded in 2003 and incorporated in Delaware that produces AirCarbon, a PHB biomaterial made by naturally-occurring ocean microorganisms that consume air and greenhouse gas. The company operates a commercial-scale biomanufacturing plant and sells AirCarbon as resin to industrial partners and as finished goods under the Restore foodware and Covalent fashion-accessory brands, positioning the material as a carbon-negative, home-compostable, ocean-degradable replacement for petroleum plastic. Newlight is a materials manufacturer, not a software vendor: it publishes no developer program, no API reference and no machine-readable contract. Its only agent-reachable surface is the Wix platform Site MCP endpoint that its marketing site advertises in its own llms.txt.
