Biotechnology

Responsible use of biotechnology to improve life, today and tomorrow.

Within Evonik’s Nutrition & Care division, industrial biotechnology is an important lever for growth and innovation. Industrial biotechnology plays a key role in securing our quality of life, and will become even more important in the future by

  • helping to reduce the consumption of natural resources,
  • driving the sustainability of the global food system, and
  • enabling the smooth transition to a circular bio-based economy.

As a science-based company, Evonik applies biotechnological methodologies to decipher the mode of action of our products and to foster the understanding of the targeted systems. We rely on industrial biotechnology for manufacturing biomolecules and bio-microbials.

Evonik is fully committed to the development of safe products and processes that meet or exceed all regulatory standards and sustainability targets.
