Genecis

Genecis Bioindustries is a Canadian climate biotech company that transforms organic waste into biodegradable plastics, specifically polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). These PHAs mimic the properties of traditional plastics but are compostable and break down naturally, offering a sustainable alternative to conventional plastic materials.‍

The company employs a two-stage fermentation process where bacteria convert food waste into fatty acids and subsequently into PHAs. This method not only reduces reliance on fossil fuels but also addresses the issue of organic waste management, contributing to a circular economy.

Genecis customizes PHAs to suit various applications, including single-use packaging, textiles, automotive parts, and medical devices. By adjusting the polymer composition, they can produce materials with desired flexibility and durability, making PHAs a versatile solution across industries.‍

The company collaborates with partners to integrate PHAs into their products, offering services from polymer development to co-branding. This approach helps businesses transition to sustainable materials without compromising on performance or profitability.
