EV Biotech specializes in precision fermentation, leveraging the capabilities of microorganisms to sustainably produce chemical compounds. Their approach focuses on reprogramming these microorganisms to replace traditional, environmentally harmful agricultural and petrochemical processes. The company emphasizes the importance of efficient research and development (R&D) processes to maximize the potential of microbial production. They offer tailored services for strain development and optimization, assisting clients at every stage of their projects, from initial compound selection to the upscaling of production processes. Their commitment to agile and transparent methodologies, along with fair intellectual property (IP) ownership, sets them apart in the biotechnology field.

One of EV Biotech's notable projects involves the production of bioplastics from waste fabric, showcasing their innovative use of bacterial engineering. In collaboration with various partners, they have developed a process that converts mixed textile waste into glucose, which is then utilized by engineered microbes to produce polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), a biodegradable polymer. This initiative not only addresses waste management challenges but also contributes to a circular economy by transforming waste into valuable products. The company aims to expand its efforts in sustainable biotechnological solutions, reinforcing its role in driving the bioeconomy forward.

EV Biotech is a biotechnology company that creates microbial production platforms for high-value chemicals and proteins. Our so-called microbial cell factories (MCFs) provide effective, bio-based alternatives to conventional chemical-synthetic, fossil fuel-dependent production processes. MCFs can produce sustainable, bio-based compounds for different target markets including Flavours & Fragrances, Biomaterials and Pharmaceuticals. Unique to EV’sapproach is the use of computational modelling and microorganisms. By combining classical fermentation methods with the latest developments in modelling approaches we have revolutionised the methods of microbial strain engineering.
