The synthetic biology and precision fermentation landscape is rapidly evolving; baCta’s unique approach using engineered bacteria seeks to make natural rubber production sustainable and scalable.
Natural rubber is currently harvested from trees, which presents sustainability issues like deforestation, whereas baCta’s carbon-neutral method promises to generate rubber without environmental compromise.
With growing emissions reporting regulations, there's increasing pressure on manufacturers to find sustainable raw materials. BaCta's engineered rubber could meet this demand effectively.
CEO Mathieu Nohet is confident that baCta can scale its lab-based production of biosynthesized natural rubber to meet commercial demands, providing a viable alternative to synthetic rubber.
