Our second manufacturing process is for butadiene, a basic chemical used in a variety of everyday products such as tire rubber, carpeting and household latex.

In August 2011, we announced that we had successfully produced butadiene from renewable feedstocks in pound quantities.

We believe Genomatica’s technology and process can offer a renewables-based option for the dedicated on-purpose production of this important supply-constrained chemical.
 

Genomatica has successfully produced pound quantities of bio-based butadiene, made from renewable feedstocks.
