About AFYREN
To meet the growing need for manufacturers to address global warming and reduce the use of petroleum derivatives in their production chains, AFYREN produces biomolecules derived from the recycling of non-food biomass, widely used in the human and animal nutrition, flavours and fragrances, life sciences, material sciences and lubricant sectors. This renewable carbon production is part of a sound circular economy process achieved through the use of globally patented fermentation technologies developed on the basis of ten years of research. Founded in 2012 and managed by Nicolas Sordet and Jérémy Pessiot, AFYREN had 33 employees at its sites in Lyon, Clermont-Ferrand and Carling Saint-Avold at the end of December 2020. AFYREN is the winner of the 2030 Global Innovation Competition in the "Plant proteins and plant chemistry" category and was selected in the French Tech120 in January 2020 and 2021. In 2018, AFYREN embarked on the construction of its industrial-scale plant AFYREN NEOXY, which takes the form of a joint venture with the SPI fund for industrial projects companies managed by Bpifrance. AFYREN NEOXY will oversee the first industrial-scale production of AFYREN natural organic acids in the Grand Est region.
