We give licensees and engineering firms everything they need to build and operate commercial plants successfully, to produce more sustainable chemicals using our technologies. That includes our engineered microorganisms, Process Design Packages and technical services for their plants to startup smoothly, work reliably and deliver on performance guarantees. We have other products made for us (e.g. our Brontide™ butylene glycol) which we then market and distribute worldwide).

Our technology leadership begins with our foundation in computation and modeling, and combines bioprocess and microorganism design with production economics and technology transfer in a total solutions approach. Our ability to “program biology” keeps getting better, and includes an alliance with Ginkgo Bioworks that leverages their automated foundries to accelerate construction of our strain designs. Additionally, we acquired technology for long-chain chemicals in 2019, expanding our potential markets. Our intellectual property includes over 1,500 patents and applications. We have earned widespread acclaim for our achievements.

We are proud to partner with companies including Covestro, Cargill, Novamont, Aquafil, ExxonMobil, Clariant, BASF and more.
