THE COMPANY

Mission

Biophrame Technologies is a biotech company and manufacturer specialized in the production of Chitosan (medium to high purity) derived from sustainable and biological industrial processes.

Description

Biophrame Technologies focuses in innovating, developing and improving technologies based on synthetic biology to create optimized and sustainable industrial processes, which can guarantee quality products for our customers.

We believe the biotechnology we develop can help us not only to optimize time and resources, but also to take care of the environment and improve the lives in our community, both regional and global. That is why the raw material that is used in our process is waste from other industrial processes from other companies.

Our main product is Chitosan, a natural fiber product with multiple applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, water treatment, textile finishing, food, cosmetics, pulp and paper, photography and tissue engineering. The product we market is the result of a biological production process based on genetically modified organisms, which is productive, cost effective and waste reductive. In our process, chitin extracted from shrimp shell waste undergoes a process of demineralization, deproteinization and deacetylation by the action of two bacteria. The behavior of these bacteria is controlled by induced temperature changes, guaranteeing no chemical use in the process.

We are strategically located in Guadalajara, the second most populated city in Mexico and responsible for 7% of national gross domestic product. Our goal in the long term is to fulfill the Mexican demand of medium and high purity Chitosan and to become the first Mexican exporter of high purity Chitosan. We want to create dream jobs for young Mexican engineers and export our biotechnology worldwide.
