BioAmber is a renewable chemistry company. We use agricultural crops and transform them into green chemicals that directly substitute chemicals derived from oil. BioAmber combines industrial biotechnology and chemical catalysis into a process that offers a better carbon footprint than petrochemicals. In addition to moving away from petroleum, our process consumes CO2, directly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and aiding in the fight against global warming. Bioamber is today the only producer of bio-succinic acid, a chemical building block used in a number of applications, such as plastics, polyurethane, solvents, personal care, plasticisers, etc.
