OPX BIO PRODUCTS, BIOACRYLIC AND FATTY ACIDS
DETAILS
Cargill has acquired
Colorado-based OPX Biotechnologies’ proprietary
fermentation-based processes and systems.
These technologies are used to produce bio-based chemicals
from sugars for use in non-food applications such as
lubricants, detergents, plastics, agrichemicals and
personal care products.
Cargill is already a large supplier of carbohydrates and
other biotech offerings. This acquisition further expands
its presence in commercial fermentation products
outside of food and feed.
