Our first commercial plant builds on years of technical expertise developed at lab scale and during our demonstration program. This program, supported by 9M€ European Funding (Sylfeed), consisted in scaling-up our process and confirming our product performances in our selected markets. From 2017 to 2021, with the support of our partners, we ran extensive fermentation trials to go from litre scale to multi cubic meter scale and fine-tune our process parameters to deliver the best product performance.
In parallel, since 2017, in vivo trials were performed in partnership with renowned universities (INRAE, Kansas State, Texas A&M,…). We’ve demonstrated SylPro’s superior performance for petfood, aquaculture, and swine; and validated Yusto’s inclusion in human food prototypes.
