Clermont-Ferrand/Lyon, July 6, 2026, 07:30 am CEST – AFYREN, a greentech company offering manufacturers biobased, low-carbon ingredients through a unique fermentation technology based on a circular model, announces the resumption of production at the AFYREN NEOXY plant after the successful technical shutdown of June.

As part of the consolidation and performance improvement plan launched in 2025, AFYREN scheduled a one-month technical shutdown in June 2026 to modify existing and install new equipment in the downstream process.
The works proceeded as planned and on budget: four weeks of work, six days out of seven, for a total 20,000 working hours and a total investment of around €6 million.

Up to 90 people have been working on site on certain days, drawn from around a dozen external companies, doubling the usual workforce at the AFYREN NEOXY plant. In the challenging conditions of intense heat, team safety remained the top priority throughout the shutdown, with zero accident with loss time reported.
Following the works, production has resumed, and AFYREN expects an acceleration in production in the second half of 2026, after a first semester which saw revenue doubling compared with FY 2025.
