CarbonWorks supports partners throughout the entire development journey, from the first proof of concept to full-scale industrial production. Built on the complementary expertise of its two founders, Fermentalg and Suez, CarbonWorks combines advanced know-how in microorganism strain development, process optimization, engineering, and industrial deployment to transform scientific innovation into commercially successful biosolutions.
Rather than offering a one-size-fits-all solution, we tailor our technology platform to the specific requirements of each project. Whether the objective is to minimize production costs, compatible with GMP standards for pharmaceutical applications, or optimize photosynthetic performance through strain-specific lighting strategies, every cultivation system is engineered to meet the biological, technical, regulatory, and economic needs of its intended market.
Our flexible collaboration model allows partners to engage at different stages of development—from a product idea and strain selection to the process definition. This integrated approach enables a faster, lower-risk path to commercialization while ensuring that each solution is optimized for long-term industrial performance.
