Which input provides your business model/core technology towards a bio-based economy?
Our technology reduces the cost of lipids produced by fermentation, and for our first product, biosurfactants, makes them cost competitive with synthetic surfactants on the market.
Which market/clients do you address and which short-term/long-term goals do you have?
We can immediately provide our integrated production technology to companies looking to reduce production cost for sophorolipids by tripling output compared to state of the art.
We provide a platform solution for the production of biosurfactants through a collaboration of world leading experts and manufacturers.
We can apply our technology to other lipids produced by fermentation in collaboration with other production companies.
What makes your approach unique compared to other stakeholders in the field?
We focus on providing process engineering technologies for integrated production and separation, rather than producing the biosurfactants ourselves, or developing application technology. This has enabled us to increase the overall output of a given bioreactor x3-4. We collaborate with market leaders to provide a complete platform solution for biosurfactant production.
You can meet Holiferm in Toulouse at the START-UP VILLAGE @EFIB on 17-18 October.
