Harnessing Nature

for People

and the Planet

Who we are

Octarine Bio is a world leading synthetic biology platform with a core mission to drive bio-based, sustainable solutions that transform the world of colour.

Our Technology

Cell-factory Engineering

and Precision Fermentation

We design microbes that make colours the way nature does, and we engineer them to do it at industrial scale. Together, our colours cover the palette that industry works with.

Industrial formulation

A colour molecule is not a product. We engineer it into one - controlling particle size and distribution, stabilising the dispersion, and tuning compatibility with the systems our customers already run.

ENZYMATIC ENHANCEMENT

We’re inspired by nature to protect nature. We develop advanced enzyme technology to precisely modify natural ingredients to create new and improved products with enhanced and optimised properties. Using our proprietary enzyme technology, we've successfully improved the solubility, stability, and bioavailability of natural ingredients, delivering improved, value-added products to our partners and customers.

These two technologies are the underpinning pillars of Octarine's scientific brilliance, empowering us to usher in a new era where natural ingredients can be made accessible on a commercial scale for the first time. Moreover, they enable us to enhance these ingredients’ inherent qualities when needed to overcome the barriers that have hindered their commercialisation. With each new breakthrough we make, we’re not just pushing the boundaries; we’re redefining what’s possible.
