First batches produced in March 2022
Commercial launch at the In-Cosmetics show in Paris
Accelerated scaling trajectory
Paris, March 23, 2022 – Global Bioenergies announces the start of production at its Pomacle unit. This unit is at the heart of a new 100% French sector for the production of renewable isododecane. Its commercial launch will take place under the “Isonaturane® 12” brand at the In-Cosmetics trade show to be held in Paris in early April. The Company is accelerating its scale-up schedule and reaffirming its ambition in aviation biofuels.
Start of commercial production at Pomacle
The Company’s first commercial unit, installed on the ARD site in Pomacle-Bazancourt, near Reims, started its activity according to the provisional schedule. The first batches of bio-based isobutene were produced on this unit in March 2022.
This new 100% French production chain based on local raw materials has been set up thanks to the evolution of the production process, which now relies on processors on the upstream part of the chain (industrial fermentation) such as on the downstream part (green chemistry).
