ABOUT US
We are a biotechnology company based in Oban, on the west coast of Scotland.
We’ve developed a gentle, biological method to extract the natural product chitin from different sources of waste from the food industry.
Chitin and its derivative, chitosan, have fantastic properties. We aim to have a zero-waste, circular business and that starts by using waste shells from the seafood industry to create a compostable, antimicrobial material that can replace single use plastic packaging and extend the shelf life of fresh food.
