Nicolas SORDET, CEO of AFYREN, said: “Founded in 2012 with the aim of offering an industrial-scale solution for transforming biomass co-products into alternatives to petroleum-based products, AFYREN has taken just ten years to move from the fundamental research phase to industrial production. By focusing on low-value raw materials, processed with our innovative natural fermentation technology, we can implement a profitable business model independent of oil-market fluctuations. The ingredients we produce meet the critical needs of manufacturers seeking more natural products and/or products with a reduced carbon footprint. This is underscored by the fact that our 1st AFYREN NEOXY plant has 165 million euros in sales secured by contracts. This industrial and commercial maturity sets us apart from other high-impact projects. Achieving our operational, financial and environmental ambitions is our priority, beginning with the start-up of continuous production at AFYREN NEOXY.
