    About Unibio 

    Unibio is a leading sustainable protein company, that has developed a fermentation technology – the U-Loop® – to produce Uniprotein®, a high-quality protein. The technology which has been scaled up to an industrial scale and is being rolled out globally, uses methane, such as natural gas and biogas as feedstock. It is Unibio’s mission to become the food of the future through the provision of secure and sustainable protein for farming and fishing feed. 

    Unibio’s technology is highly resource efficient and sustainable. The process replicates the same process that happens every day in nature. Unibio is headquartered in Roskilde near Copenhagen in Denmark, where it also has its Research & Development centre. Unibio’s Innovation centre with a pilot and demo plant is located in Kalundborg west of Copenhagen.

    About U-Loop® technology 

    Unibio’s patented U-Loop® technology uses a continuous-flow fermentation process to mimic a process that occurs in nature every day and uses gases, including methane to produce Uniprotein®. The technology has a very low water consumption and a low land usage – and doesn’t require any arable land.  Through its proprietary process, microbes grow with methane as feedstock, and they are turned into single-cell protein – Uniprotein® that is subsequently treated and purified to a nutritious, high-quality feed grade. Unibio owns the intellectual property rights to the U-Loop® technology. 

    About Uniprotein®

    Uniprotein® is a high-quality and sustainable protein on par with other high-quality proteins such as fishmeal and soy protein. The amino acid profile for Uniprotein® is very close to fishmeal. Uniprotein® has been approved for feed for terrestrial and aquatic animals in the EU and registrations globally are in progress. Uniprotein® has a high uniform quality, is free from pesticides, is fully traceable, and is non-GMO. The product has been introduced commercially drawing significant interest from customers from all over the world. The product is in development for direct human consumption.

    Unibio, the world’s leading sustainable protein company, uses microbial fermentation to convert methane, into high quality and sustainable protein for fish and animal feed. It is Unibio’s mission to deliver sustainable protein for livestock, aquaculture and the food of the future. Unibio’s technology is highly resource-efficient and sustainable. The process replicates the same process that happens every day in nature. Unibio is rolling out the technology globally.
