    "We merken dat het besef in Vlaanderen groeit dat biotech een belangrijke rol moet spelen in de omslag naar een circulaire economie", zegt Sophie Roelants van AmphiStar in het tweede nummer van het PMV-magazine. Terwijl surfactanten (een essentieel onderdeel van o.a. schoonmaakmiddelen) vandaag gemaakt worden op basis van aardolie, ontwikkelt de Gentse start-up microbiële biosurfactanten met een productieproces op basis van voedselafval: een revolutie in de chemische sector.

    𝐀𝐦𝐩𝐡𝐢𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐍𝐞𝐰𝐬! 📺 Last month, our CEO, Pierre-Franck Valentin, had the pleasure of joining BFM Business to discuss how AmphiStar is revolutionizing the #surfactant industry by 𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐞𝐜𝐨-𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐲, 𝐡𝐢𝐠𝐡-𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐛𝐢𝐨𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐟𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬. Missed it? Don’t worry, we’ve got a highlight reel for you! 🎥 In this interview, Pierre-Franck dives into our unique fermentation process, where we transform unsold fruits, vegetables, and used cooking oils into the key ingredients for personal care, home care, and industrial products. This isn't just innovation—it's a complete rethink of how we can power the shift to a circular economy by reducing reliance on fossil fuels and agricultural land. 🌱 💡 Curious about what the future holds for AmphiStar and how we turn #wastetowonders, creating the next generation of fully bio-based surfactants?
