Cauldron Ferm

Today, we are excited to announce that the Queensland Government is backing Cauldron Ferm through its Industry Partnership Program (IPP) to develop a cutting-edge precision fermentation contract manufacturing facility in Mackay. This Project aligns with the Queensland new-industry development strategy to develop industries that will be in demand as the world decarbonizes. The IPP supports plans to establish the Cauldron Bio-fab, a new industrial facility in Mackay that will be the first and largest end-to-end contract manufacturer for precision fermented bioproducts in the Asia-Pacific region. This industrial biomanufacturing site will deploy Cauldron’s novel hyper-fermentation technology, a breakthrough continuous fermentation process which significantly reduces costs. By driving down the cost of goods to achieve parity with conventional products, Cauldron’s proprietary platform holds transformative potential for the global bioeconomy across a variety of sectors. “With the support of the Queensland Government, Cauldron is a step closer towards building a first-of-a-kind facility that will produce ingredients used in fibre, fuel, feed and food products at commercial scale,” said Queensland Government Department of State Development and Infrastructure Minister for State Development and Infrastructure Grace Grace. We are honoured to be receiving support from the Queensland Government to develop our first industrial-scale operations in Mackay. This funding enables us to scale our innovative technology as a major milestone in our journey to redefine the scope of biomanufacturing. Join us in celebrating this development of vital infrastructure for the global bioeconomy!

Australia's precision fermentation sector benefits from a highly collaborative ecosystem 🇦🇺 drawing on compelling sovereign capabilities, including world-class research expertise, advanced manufacturing, and internationally-regarded regulators. If you're interested in discovering how to leverage this diverse biomanufacturing slipstream in your scale up journey, don't miss this #BuildYourBiofuture breakout session at the Asia-Pacific Agri-Food Innovation Summit. Our Co-founder and CEO Michele Stansfield will highlight the strategic partnerships streamlining the journey from molecules to market and Cauldron Ferm's role in de-risking industrial-scale production. Looking forward to joining QUT (Queensland University of Technology) CSIRO Nurasa in Singapore! #precisionfermentation #bioeconomy #biomanufacturing

We had a great experience in Seoul last week at the HiConf summit! 🇰🇷 Our co-founder and CEO Michele Stansfield shared how Cauldron Ferm solves the gap for commercially viable biomanufacturing. For those who missed Michele's presentation, here's how we de-risk the scale up journey for our customers: 🔹 At the Cauldron demo facility in Orange, NSW, we optimize a hyper-fermentation process for our customers' strains that's ready for industrial-scale. 🔹 We provide commercial demo-scale proof cases and techno-economic modeling showing hyper-fermentation's ability to drive down costs and achieve parity with conventional products. 🔷 At our planned full-scale industrial bio-fab, we provide specialized manufacturing as a service - delivering low-cost production and commercial volumes using our hyper-fermentation platform. Thanks to the HiConf team for the opportunity to share our vision and for bringing together an inspiring cohort of food tech leaders. #foodtech #precisionfermentation #biomanufacturing #bioeconomy

I am looking forward to moderating the session, Commercial Resources for Developing and Scaling Industrial Bioprocesses (Track 3, Session 4), at the upcoming AFCC (Alternative Fuels & Chemical Coalition) conference, a topic near and dear to me. Participants will include Beth Conerty, David Demirjian, Michael Tai, PhD, Mark Warner, and David Weiner. Looking forward to catching up/reconnecting with those in the industry as well as making new connections. https://lnkd.in/gPJG3265

Between our facility expansion, government grant announcements, and continued technical breakthroughs with customers, there's good reason to jump for joy at the Cauldron Ferm demo facility!

Australian precision fermentation leader Cauldron Ferm announces major milestone with Queensland government support to construct Asia-Pacific's largest contract manufacturing facility for fermentation-derived bioproducts in Mackay. The facility will showcase Cauldron's groundbreaking hyper-fermentation technology, which promises to slash production costs by 50% while boosting output by 20% and requiring 45% less capital expenditure than traditional methods. With an impressive 500,000-liter capacity, the plant is designed to produce over 1,000 tonnes of ingredients annually, serving various industries. As the only company approved for 10,000-liter scale production of precision fermented proteins in Australia, Cauldron Ferm is uniquely positioned to lead the region's biomanufacturing revolution. The company views this facility as a stepping stone in its vision to develop a global network of industrial facilities, and is currently raising Series B funding to support its ambitious expansion plans. #cellag #futureoffood #precisionfermentation #biotech #manufacturing

Greetings from the Seoul Institute of Technology 🇰🇷 Just arrived in Seoul for the HiConf conference! Looking forward to a whirlwind week connecting with the global food tech and health innovation community at the summit and within the local ecosystem here in South Korea. 👋 Tag folks I should meet while I’m here!

From continuous fermentation to cheaper feedstocks, how are companies in the fermentation space utilising innovation to make the economics add up? Our Co-founder and CFO David Kestenbaum joined a panel at Future Food-Tech in London to discuss the role that breakthrough fermentation technology plays in improving unit economics. 💡 While different perspectives were represented in the discussion, the panelists shared the sentiment that we need innovation across the tech stack to improve efficiency at all steps in the process. Thanks to Rethink Events for organizing and David Nunn of Better Dairy for moderating an insightful panel conversation. #altproteins #futureoffood #precisionfermentation #biomanufacturing #biotech #bioeconomy
