De-risking Bioprocess Scaling: From Lab to Market with Microbial Resource Management
Avecom leverages more than 30 years of mastery in microbial community dynamics under diverse industrial and environmental conditions to pioneer breakthrough, scalable innovations, achieved by translating our precise Microbial Resource Management capabilities into advanced enzymatic and biomass fermentation platforms
Environmental Remediation
Biomass Fermentation
Looking for ways to create value from your industrial side streams? Our innovative fermentation platforms convert them into sustainable and circular ingredients. An additional revenue stream, and less use of virgin materials.
Scaling Microbial Platforms for Next-Generation Bioproducts
Avecom develops and scales high-performance microbial technologies for environmental remediation and sustainable bio-manufacturing. Leveraging deep expertise in microbial consortia engineering, biodegradation, and fermentation, we collaborate with industrial partners to deliver economically viable, scalable biobased processes.
Our Offer
As awareness for the impact on our environment grows, we at Avecom have developed a range of products and services to restore the natural balance.
Scalable Platform Technologies
Avecom’s proprietary core technology platforms bridge gas fermentation, microbial protein (SCP) synthesis, and ultra-low nutrient recovery to deliver scalable bioprocesses shaping the future of the global bioeconomy.
Research & Development Services
We leverage our 3 decades of expertise in strategic collaborations with industrial and academic partners. Our fully equipped labs, pilot plants, and small-scale production units are available for feasibility studies, process optimizations, contract research and the scaling up of innovative processes.
Molecular Analytics
Operating as Microbial Insights Europe, Avecom provides localized, high-resolution molecular diagnostic services. We deploy advanced molecular biological tools — including qPCR, QuantArray®, SIP, and ISMs — to precisely identify microbial communities and deliver actionable biodegradation and biocorrosion data.
Bioproducts Portfolio
Avecom formulates and manufactures high-performance bioaugmentation cultures and biostimulation matrices. Our portfolio includes live microbial consortia — such as Abil, Hands, Multidechlorobac and Bactocool — for targeted pollutant degradation, alongside engineered nutrient and redox regulators — such as Nutriflok, Empower, Methanostim and Stabilox — that optimize biological wastewater treatment, anaerobic digestion, and environmental remediation.
Biodegradability Testing
Avecom provides R&D biodegradability testing for advanced (bio)polymers, coatings, and chemical formulations. We deploy standardized respirometric assays — including OECD 301F for aquatic environments and ASTM D5988-18 / ISO 17556 for soil matrices — alongside hyper-customized kinetic evaluations to rapidly resolve material degradation bottlenecks.
Venture Engine
The Avecom Venture Engine is our proprietary technology incubator and spin-off foundry designed to bridge the gap between laboratory bioprocess innovation and commercial-scale industrial deployment. By combining platform IP licensing with equity-backed corporate venture building, Avecom de-risks, incubates, and deploys scalable biological technologies into standalone, market-focused operating entities.
Through our Venture Engine, Avecom retains its core focus on R&D, bioprocess engineering, and strain optimization, while providing our portfolio companies with exclusive access to patented platforms, pilot-scale facilities, and deep expertise in microbial resource management.
Our Testimonials
Our renowned solutions have been providing results to businesses and organizations from all over the world for over 30 years!
B4Plastics cooperates with Avecom since several years to validate its novel backbones in an early phase of the development. This 3rd party validation by Avecom especially supports the growing B4Plastics business in those biomaterials innovations where biodegradability has an important added value.
