The high-performance collagen

next generation
collagen from
engineered fungi

We design and produce recombinant collagen by precision fermentation of engineered fungi, guaranteeing mono-dispersive purity, clinical efficacy, sustainability, as well as a robust scalable supply chain.

Collagen’s Anti-aging Superpowers
to Tackle the Longevity Crisis

30% of the proteins in the human body, but declining integrity while aging.

Clinically effective for skin, bone, cartilage, joint, hair and nail health issues.

A fast growing +11B$ market to keep us active, healthy, and youthful.

An illustration showing the importance of collagen and its presence in skin, joints, bones, hair, cartilage and nails.

Next generation collagen is engineered and grown, not slaughtered.

Pure &
Consistent

Our fungal platform consistently secretes mono-dispersive collagen, mitigating the risks of impurities.

Programmable
& Safe

The platform gives the freedom to design optimized collagen with novel traits and no immunogenicity.

Robust &
Scalable

Our engineered fungi express large amounts of protein, enabling economy of scale and robust supply. ​

Sustainable
& Vegan

-80% water and -95% land use, compared to livestock. Vegan. Can use agricultural waste streams as feedstock.

One source, multiple applications.

collagen in cosmetics

Cosmetics

Topical creams, gels and serums, for better skin and hair texture, and moisture retention.

collagen in functional foods

Food & Beverages

Functional food and beverages for gut health, satiety and metabolic benefits.

collagen in nutraceuticals

Nutraceuticals

Bioactive peptides as supplements for skin, nail, hair, gut, bone and joint health.
