Food processing

Biotechnology at the service of the food-processing industry.

GERME S.A. develops a wide range of skills for the food-processing industry: bioconversion, specific enzymes, innovative ingredients and valorisation of co-products.

Our services

Four areas of expertise to innovate and add value.

Bioconversion of innovative molecules

Cleavage of polymers, grafting of biochemical and chemical compounds, synthesis of new molecules by microbial or enzymatic routes, and production of starter cultures for processing plant raw materials.

Enzymes for natural flavours

Production of animal and plant lipases, microbial esterases and lipases, microbial proteases and beta-glucuronidases.

Innovative food ingredients

Enzymatic improvement of basic ingredients and extraction from plants or micro-organisms approved for the food industry.

Valorisation of co-products

Extraction of high, medium or low value-added molecules from co-products, and conversion of by-products into Single-Cell Proteins.
