Specific Public Benefits
Even though Gravity Grains is formed as a Limited Liability Company (LLC), we are structured toward operating as a Specific Benefit Corporation (SBC), also called a “B‑Corp.” This means our mission is written directly into our institutional bylaws.
We function in some ways like a non‑profit entity, but we know that profits are necessary to reach further than our members alone can support. We are deeply committed to providing these public benefits, and the Space Agriculture industry has a billion‑dollar bar for entry. We believe our values allow economics and ethics to stay aligned for generations.
Article 3 of our bylaws defines the commitments that guide our work. The systems we engineer, the products we develop, the projects we pursue, and the people we work with must all show consistent and measurable value toward these specific public benefits. Our transparency in operations also ensures that we are not satisfying one benefit publicly at the cost of another privately.
Fresh Air
We design and refine air systems that help habitats breathe. Earth is our favorite habitat. Filtration, exhaust capture, and other mechanisms keep environments stable, healthy, and resilient. Clean air is foundational to any ecosystem, and everyone at Gravity Grains enjoys being able to catch our breath.
Drinkable Water
Water sustains life. We focus on technologies that keep it safe and accessible. Our work includes filtration, treatment, and quality‑preservation systems that support long‑term ecological balance and habitat viability.
Good Food
From agriculture to aquaculture to silviculture, we develop food‑production systems that nourish communities and maintain ecological balance. Our goal is to support sustainable, adaptive, and diverse food sources across a wide range of environments.
Clean Energy
We invest in natural energy systems, conservation strategies, and storage technologies that keep habitats powered without compromising their long‑term health. Reliable, renewable energy is essential for both daily operations and future exploration. Nothing survives without energy.
Simple Medicines
We support the development of essential medicines, nutrient systems, and treatments for common conditions. These foundational health tools help communities recover, adapt, and thrive in environments with limited access to healthcare resources. Without them, simple health concerns can easily become complicated.
Creative Materials
Materials shape how people live, work, and express themselves. We explore sustainable materials, from simple to complex, that support comfort, psychological well‑being, and cultural growth within any habitat. We want to enable the enjoyment of life, not just the survival of it.
Space Exploration
Exploration is at the core of our identity. We develop systems that make it possible to reach new places, learn from them, and responsibly access the resources they offer. Our work supports discovery, stewardship, and the expansion of human capability.
Education
We believe knowledge should be shared. Gravity Grains supports learning at every level, with a focus on hands‑on experience for students and collaborative research with doctoral‑level scholars. We seek to ensure that everyone who works with us continues to grow in skill, insight, and purpose.
