Othisis attracted wider attention in August 2026 after successfully hot-firing a 5-kilonewton liquid-oxygen-and-methane rocket engine manufactured extensively through metal additive manufacturing. The engine produced a reported total impulse of 100 kN·s, incorporates regenerative cooling and uses a modular pintle injector. The company plans to use the propulsion technology first in a reusable flight demonstrator and later within its broader launch-vehicle programme.

CarbonCraft’s approach combines materials engineering with traditional Indian craftsmanship. The technology determines how difficult waste streams can be processed and incorporated into stable construction materials, while artisans manufacture and finish products that can be used as visible architectural surfaces. This combination allows the company to approach waste recycling not merely as an environmental service but as a source of commercially usable building products.
