Environmental awareness in product form
The new generation of natural surfactants!
Our biosurfactant is a natural, biodegradable and non-toxic molecule with high foaming, emulsifying, surfactant and high stability performance, desirable characteristics for various ecologically correct industrial sectors, enabling consumers to take care of themselves without compromising the well-being of the planet. Our production is by biotechnological route using bioreactors for the cultivation of non-pathogenic microorganisms in a sustainable way from renewable resources, contributing to the bioeconomy.
Biosurfactant
Applications
The market for biosurfactants of microbial origin has expanded as an alternative to the problematic surfactants of chemical origin from petroleum and those of natural origin from plants.
Cosmetics
In the cosmetic industry, biosurfactants can act as emulsifiers, cleansing enhancers and foamers.
Environment
Due to their high bioremediative potential and biodegradability, biosurfactants are excellent options for sustainable alternatives in environmental recovery, such as heavy metals and pesticides.
Agriculture
In agriculture, biosurfactants can act in the defense of plants against pathogens in a natural way and without leaving toxic residues. In addition, they can play the role of fertilizers.
Nanotechnology
Biosurfactants can be part of key nanotechnology molecules,
stabilizing and employing various activities of industrial interest.
Health
Due to their diverse contributions to different areas of health such as: Antimicrobial capacity, combating oxidation and biofilm disruption, biosurfactants are big bets in this sector.
Our team
Our team is multidisciplinary and composed of specialists from different areas of knowledge.

Research and Development
Optimized bioprocess
Our bioprocess is carried out in an optimized way, reducing costs and allowing market access to the product. Our biomass is not discarded and will be used as an input for animal feed.
Industry waste reuse
Microbial biotechnology
Sustainable purification
We use industrial waste to produce our biosurfactant, contributing to the bioeconomy.
We use non-pathogenic microorganisms as a factory for the production of our molecules. Thus, we do not need animal exploitation, as our product is vegan.
During our purification process there is no generation of waste that is toxic to the environment.
