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!

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

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

We're looking forward to joining the HiConf Seoul conference next week to connect with the robust APAC ecosystem poised for collaboration for food technology and health innovation. Our co-founder & CEO Michele Stansfield will speak about Cauldron Ferm's tech-driven approach to de-risking the path to commercialization for precision fermented food ingredients. 🏭 Michele will also share insights into our plans to develop APAC's largest precision fermentation facility. 👋 If you'd like to connect in Seoul, please reach out!

👩🏭 Exciting news for Australia's biomanufacturing sector: Cauldron Ferm announced that the Queensland Government will support the development of an industrial-scale precision fermentation facility. Details: https://bit.ly/3zPpICe The facility will be the first and largest end-to-end contract manufacturer for bioproducts in Asia-Pacific, with a projected annual output of over 1,000 tons. It will deploy Cauldron’s hyper-fermentation technology for cost-effective and resource-efficient production of #alternativeproteins and widely used petrochemicals for multiple sectors. Policymakers in Australia and around the world are beginning to make notable investments in alternative protein R&D and commercialization as they incorporate sustainable proteins into their food security, global health, and sustainability strategies — but more investment is needed to realize sector's full potential.

Spider silk is renowned for its incredible strength, surpassing even that of steel at its size. But what if this unique bio-material could be adapted for the medical industry? 🕸️ By modifying the natural protein sequence, scientists have succeeded in creating a spinnable and stable spider silk using microbes—a remarkable achievement in genetic engineering. As Tech Explorist reports, with its persuasive blend of strength and healing capabilities, this artificial silk could revolutionize the field of wound care. As an enabling platform technology, Cauldron Ferm makes it possible to produce the volumes required at competitive costs for bio-products to disrupt mainstream markets. From industrial applications to wound care, the future for bio-materials is bright.
