Where science meets commercial reality
Our Story
From those early experiments, Bioextrax emerged as a biosolutions company built on the principle that innovation should serve both people and the planet. Our first technology marked a breakthrough in sustainable production. By using bacteria to produce and extract biodegradable plastic replacements, we found a way to reduce waste while creating circular solutions for global industries.
Today, we continue to build on that founding vision. We collaborate with partners who share our belief that progress and preservation must move forward together. What began as research has become a continuous transformation of how we think, produce, and consume.

From lab to demo scale
Bioextrax operates a complete pilot and demo facility for biotechnological processes. We support the full journey from the first litre to 1,000 litres in stainless steel, covering pretreatment, separation, filtration, and drying. This allows us to test and validate processes at a realistic scale – without further investment in equipment.
We operate a range of stainless steel bioreactors and fermenters across this full volume range. This enables stepwise scale-up from development runs to demo level, parallel campaigns with different strains or process parameters, and the ability to mimic industrial conditions ahead of full-scale investment.
Made by Microbes
Our name is a reflection of what we do, biobased extraction. The term "Made by Microbes" defines our entire production philosophy. Rather than relying on synthetic chemistry, we harness the natural capabilities of microorganisms to produce and recover high-performance materials. Our symbol, formed from the letters "b" and "x", creates a shape that references molecular connections, a visual reminder that everything we make is made by microbes.
