We continue to learn from and unfold the potential of nature by building on our core competencies as a biotechnology leader.
Three key growth areas
Our core business is focused on discovering, developing, and manufacturing industrial enzymes. Our current business development projects are moving us into three additional areas of focus:
- Ligno-cellulosic biorefineries. Our goal is to more economically produce clean-burning, efficient ethanol fuel at high-volume quantities.
- Biochemicals. Our goal is to provide economical, effective products to help reduce the environmental impact of traditional chemical production methods while increasing their efficiency.
- Performance proteins and peptides. Our goal is to develop, produce, and market new protein biomaterials and peptides with unique functionalities.
Strategic partners wanted...
We’ve already made strong in-roads into these three new areas of industrial application, but we’re continually expanding our work.
We’re always looking for partners with unique and innovative technologies. If your academic institution, research group, or place of business has developed an innovative new technology or process, but you need help with some of the steps to commercialize your development, give us a call.
