It’s time to go back to the basics of biology… For centuries chemicals have been used in almost every industry, product and application. The reason? Because people didn’t understand how to use biology. Now, that’s changing… Locus FS stands at the forefront of a crucial shift towards leveraging biologicals that outperform chemicals and tackle global industry challenges. Delve into how the company’s team of experts is developing 100% bio-based solutions for a cleaner, greener and more sustainable future. We're making industries better with biology. #EarthDay #EarthDay2024 #EarthDayEveryDay #BetterwithBiology #Biology #Microbiology #Chemistry #Chemicals #Sustainability #Biobased #Biologicals #Biosurfactants #Fermentation #Science

Surfactants. These ingredients play a crucial role in every industry, from agriculture to energy to consumer products. But there’s a big change happening…a shift from chemical surfactants to biobased surfactants. Here’s the twist: not all biobased surfactants are created equal. And not all offer the same benefits. At Locus FS, we're leading the charge in the transition to 100% biobased surfactants. Specifically, fermentation-produced biosurfactants made from renewable raw materials. One of the things that sets our biosurfactants apart is their complex molecular structure. They have more active sites per molecule, giving them multiple functionalities within a single product formulation. The result? Enhanced efficiency and lower usage rates compared to traditional and even other biobased surfactants. Sustainability + Performance. For industries ready to make the switch to safer, more sustainable ingredients, Locus FS has it covered. #GreenChemistry #Biobased #Surfactants #Biosurfactants #Glycolipids #Sophorolipids #Science #Microbiology #Biomanufacturing #Fermentation #Sutainability

FACT: Fermentation makes more than just beer. A similar process can also be used to create biological solutions for almost every industry. Locus FS has put a new spin on traditional fermentation techniques, using microorganisms (such as yeast) and renewable raw materials (like fatty acids and carbohydrates) to brew sustainable, 100% bio-based ingredients. The proprietary process creates environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional chemicals that solve key global challenges. Each solution is tailored to specific application across a multitude of global industries, from agriculture to energy to consumer products. Now you know....fermentation is not just for beverages; it's pioneering a shift towards greener, more sustainable industrial practices. #NationalBeerDay #Beer #BeerMaking #Fermentation #FermentedIngredients #BioBased #Biomanufacturing #Biotechnology #Sustainability
