Problem
The food and beverage industries rely heavily on synthetic scent compounds, which are often perceived negatively by consumers seeking natural and sustainable products. Traditional methods of extracting natural aroma compounds can be environmentally intensive and inconsistent in supply and quality.
Solution
EvodiaBio utilizes a precision fermentation process to produce natural monoterpenes, which are volatile aroma molecules, from yeast at a commercial scale. This technology, branded as Yops™, replicates natural plant pathways to create sustainable aroma solutions that mirror nature's vibrant aromas. By replacing the need for harvested aromatic compounds, EvodiaBio offers a more environmentally friendly and scalable alternative for flavor production. The resulting aroma compounds are consistent, stable, and easily integrated into existing production processes for various food and beverage applications.
