GranBio Company Overview

GranBio, established in Brazil, is a biotechnology company pioneering in the conversion of biomass into renewable energy and sustainable products. GranBio aims to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and mitigate global warming through innovative technologies. The company's core products include second-generation ethanol (2G ethanol), biofuels for aviation (SAF), biochemicals, and nanocellulose. Second-generation ethanol, a more sustainable alternative to traditional ethanol, is produced from lignocellulosic biomass rather than food crops, minimizing competition with food production and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. GranBio’s biofuels for aviation are designed to meet stringent international standards, offering a sustainable alternative to fossil-based jet fuels. GranBio’s technological platforms, such as GreenPower+, AVAP+, and BioPlus, are pivotal in their production processes. GreenPower+ facilitates the production of high-purity lignocellulosic sugars, essential for various biochemical processes. AVAP+ is a comprehensive biomass-to-sugar technology that enhances the efficiency and sustainability of biofuel production. BioPlus focuses on the production of nanocellulose, a versatile material used in numerous industries, including packaging, automotive, and pharmaceuticals, due to its high strength and biodegradability. The company emphasizes sustainability and carbon neutrality, converting biomass into biochemicals and renewable materials with neutral carbon emissions. GranBio’s operations are aligned with the principles of the circular economy, ensuring that all aspects of production contribute to environmental conservation and energy efficiency. GranBio collaborates with academic institutions, research organizations, and industry partners to drive innovation and advance the bioeconomy. Their commitment to research and development is evident in their continuous efforts to improve production processes and develop new applications for their products. GranBio’s vision extends beyond Brazil, aiming to become a global leader in renewable energy and sustainable materials. By leveraging cutting-edge technology and a strong commitment to sustainability, GranBio is at the forefront of the transition towards a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
