BluCon Biotech GmbH, founded in June 2017 and based at the BioCampus in Cologne, Germany, has developed a groundbreaking technology for producing L lactic acid at the lowest possible cost. This lactic acid is a key component in the production of polylactic acid (PLA), a biodegradable bioplastic. The company's proprietary bacteria digest lignocellulosic biomass, such as agricultural and industrial residues, in a single bioreactor, bypassing the need for sugars and avoiding competition with the food chain. This innovative process not only reduces production costs but also has a significant positive impact on the environment by offering a sustainable alternative to fossil fuel-based plastics. BluCon Biotech GmbH serves a diverse range of clients in the biotechnology and environmental sectors, focusing on those interested in sustainable and biodegradable plastic solutions. The company operates in the global bioplastics market, which is rapidly growing due to increasing environmental concerns and regulatory pressures. BluCon's business model revolves around licensing its proprietary technology and selling the produced lactic acid to manufacturers of bioplastics. Revenue is generated through technology licensing fees and sales of lactic acid. The company's core team boasts expertise in microbiology, strain and process development, and project management, making it well-positioned to lead in the applied biotechnology field. BluCon Biotech GmbH is also actively seeking to acquire additional technologies to expand its platform and capabilities.
