We exist to empower industries to break free from fossil-based plastics — delivering scalable, high-performance solutions that protect the planet without sacrificing commercial performance.

WHO WE ARE

How BioZein is Changing the Game in Zein Supply

From Idea to Industry

Zein is not new — but scalable zein is.

For decades, industries recognized zein’s potential as a sustainable, biodegradable material, but consistent supply at industrial volumes remained out of reach.

At BioZein, we’ve changed that. Thanks to our patented extraction technology and dedicated production capacity, high-quality zein is now a reliable, industrial reality — ready to support your business without hesitation.

Today, manufacturers can finally access zein at the scale, consistency, and price point needed to make a real-world impact across packaging, pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, and industrial sectors.

Built for Manufacturers

Our process is designed for manufacturers, not just researchers.

We ensure consistent product quality, competitive pricing, and on-time delivery — all at true industrial scale.

By combining advanced solvent-free extraction methods with large-batch production, we eliminate the bottlenecks that have historically held zein back from broader commercial adoption.

With BioZein, manufacturers can count on a steady, scalable supply of zein, supported by flexible logistics, application guidance, and an unwavering focus on meeting industrial needs — not just academic ones.

A Trusted Production Base

At BioZein, control starts at the source.

We source our non-GMO corn from within 5–50km of our facility, ensuring full traceability, reliability, and freshness.

This close, sustainable sourcing network allows us to guarantee high quality, efficient processing, and confidence in delivery for all our customers, no matter where you are in the world.

By managing every step — from raw material selection to final production — BioZein offers a trusted foundation for industries seeking reliable, natural alternatives to petroleum-based materials.

"BioZein makes nature’s smart polymer scalable — delivering reliable, high-quality zein to industries ready to build a more sustainable future."

Zein Facts

Zein: Rediscovered. Reimagined. Ready.

Once used in textiles and coatings before the plastic boom, zein is making a comeback — powered by demand for biodegradable, natural, food-safe materialsZein is one of the few natural polymers that is safe, biodegradable, water-resistant, and thermoplastic — making it a rare solution for global material reform.
