Metgen Oy – Finland

MetGen Oy is an innovative biotech SME founded in 2008 based in Kaarina, Finland. It designs, develops, supplies and markets novel enzymatic solutions and technologies for the most challenging industrial conditions to meet our customer-specific needs. MetGen uses advances in genetic engineering and microbiology to adapt enzymes to harsh industrial conditions and handle various lignocellulosic substrates. MetGen is readily prepared to address the whole value chain in bioprocessing – from pretreatment of a substrate through hydrolysis and utilization of sugars to bioconversion and valorization of lignin and other side streams – with its MetZyme® and METNIN™ technology. METNIN™ technology can refine the bulk of soluble lignin, turning lignin into specific fractions with controlled chemical characteristics to match end-user applications.
