Copenhagen, Denmark, December 16th, 2024 - With the global population expected to reach nearly 10 billion by 2050, the need for sustainable, scalable, and efficient protein solutions has never been more urgent. With a focus on full-scale commercialisation, Unibio has launched a refreshed visual identity.  This identity embodies a renewed mission to reshape the future and lead the global shift toward affordable, planet-friendly, and efficient protein production. The ability to deliver enhanced food security without compromising the planet’s resources is a powerful commitment that is enshrined in this launch.

David Henstrom, CEO of Unibio, stated, “By communicating our mission more powerfully, we ensure that Unibio stands out as a leader in sustainable innovation through both technology and product development."

Unibio’s cutting-edge fermentation technology harnesses nature’s alchemy to brew resilient, planet-friendly proteins in a sustainable way, delivering on its vision to transform protein production on a global scale.

The renewed mission and branding mirror a commitment to building a diverse, inclusive working culture that fosters creativity and drives sustainability. A business that operates with purpose, people, and planet in mind and encompasses strong values of collaboration to unlock value, execution with urgency, and empowering ownership.

June 4th, 2024 – London – At Noah London 2024, Unibio presented its vision for transforming global protein production, offering a revolutionary solution to some of the planet’s most pressing environmental challenges, including deforestation, overfishing, and the overuse of water and arable land. Unibio’s innovative technology is designed to produce sustainable protein at scale, without relying on traditional agricultural or marine resources.

The company’s groundbreaking fermentation process utilizes carbon-rich gases to create Uniprotein®—a microbial, planet-friendly alternative to conventional protein sources. This scalable and modular technology has already been successfully implemented at commercial scale, positioning Unibio to address the global demand for sustainable protein while preserving vital ecosystems.

Unibio’s solution not only meets the needs of feed and food markets but also offers a path to food security in regions where land and water resources are scarce. By rethinking how protein is produced, Unibio is helping to shape a more sustainable and abundant future for food production worldwide.

Unibio, the leading sustainable protein company committed to feeding the world’s growing population, is pleased to announce that it has become a member of the Global Feed LCA Institute (“GFLI”).

GFLI is an independent animal nutrition and food industry institute with the purpose of developing a publicly available Animal Nutrition Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) database to support meaningful environmental assessment of animal nutrition products and stimulate continuous improvement of the environmental performance in the animal nutrition and food industry.

The membership supports GFLI’s commitment to monitor and improve the environmental performance of the animal nutrition industry and aligns with Unibio’s ethos – to feed the world’s growing population in a sustainable way.

Unibio’s proprietary technology – the U-Loop® uses fermentation to produce Uniprotein®. The technology mimics a process that occurs in nature every day and uses methane (e.g. natural gas or biogas) as feedstock. The production of Uniprotein® is efficient, uses little or no water and is unaffected by weather conditions that can impact the production of more traditional protein sources.

Uniprotein® is approved for feed in the European Union, it is free from pesticides, fully traceable, and non-GMO. It has been launched commercially and is attracting significant global interest from feed compound companies and animal and fish farmers.

CEO of Unibio, David Henstrom commented:

“Unibio has long been seen as a leader in the sustainable and alternative protein space. Our GFLI membership will facilitate strong and long-term relationships with those in the animal nutrition and food industry as all parties collaborate to provide credible enhancements to the world’s protein insecurity in the most sustainable manner.”

Project Manager Laura Nobel from GFLI commented:

“The GFLI is delighted to welcome Unibio, one of the first biotechnological companies to join our framework of frontrunners. The Global Feed LCA Institute represents nearly 30 members. Sustainability and finding solutions to limiting the carbon footprint of feed and food production on our planet is of paramount importance. The Institute and its database allow for pre-competitive science-based discussions and engagement with other stakeholders in the feed and food chain. By supporting the GFLI, members contribute to the resilience of the entire supply chain through an acknowledged methodology and high-quality database with an increasing number of datasets of feed ingredients.”
