About

AFYREN is a French greentech start-up in bioprocess and microbiology engineering for the valorization of non-food biomass and particularly agricultural by-products. Our goal is to produce at industrial scale a family of organic acids that are today mainly produced from a petrochemical process. Our products will help companies in the food, feed, cosmetics, pharmaceutical and other industries reduce their impact on the environment. LCA shows an 81% carbon footprint reduction compared with petroleum-based products.
