Eliminate Waste, Cultivate High Value Resources, Regenerate Nature.What if economic activity wasn’t dependent on finite resources? What if production processes could strengthen ESG compliances rather than pose hindrances? These are the visions fuelling Aplantex. We are addressing the real and urgent need for sustainably extracted molecules essential to many products in the pharmaceutical, cosmetics and agrifood industries. Aplantex’s scientific breakthrough is enabling local Canadian production of raw materials leveraging plant biomass, in a process that is only dependent on renewable resources. The production process generates zero waste and leaves behind no carbon footprint. The more high-value molecules that are produced, the more the air around us is purified.For over 20 years, my passion for the research and application of science has supported the creation of environmentally-sound, real-world solutions. In the early part of my career, I was heavily involved in academic research, during which time I earned my post doctorate in microbiology, virology, and molecular biology. Since then, I’ve played a key role in helping start ups bring their biotechnology products or services to market.
