Avantium, pioneering renewable chemistry

Avantium is a leading chemical technology company and a forerunner in renewable chemistry. Together with its partners around the world, Avantium develops efficient processes and sustainable products made from biobased materials. Avantium offers a breeding ground for revolutionary renewable chemistry solutions. From invention to commercially viable production processes.

Catalysis

Following a spin-out from Royal Dutch Shell in 2000, Avantium was founded with the singular purpose of using advanced catalysis to transform the world of R&D. Our name is rooted in the Latin word for ‘forerunner’. Today, we define ourselves as a ‘creative accelerator’; a company specialized in groundbreaking innovations and technologies for catalytic R&D services and systems.
 

YXY

It is our mission to make our customers successful and create a better tomorrow. Based on this expertise we developed YXY, a novel process for the creation of commercial Furanics.
 

Renewable Chemistries

Avantium’s Renewable Chemistries business unit focuses on developing and commercializing innovative products and processes in the renewable & sustainable chemistries space. We have an “incubator lab” packed with innovative programs to deliver cost competitive renewable products and processes; addressing the challenges of sustainability for future generations.

Product category: 
Biotechnology

At Avantium’s Catalysis business unit we help companies like BP, Shell, UOP, Coca Cola and IFPEN to reach their targets for sustainability, profitability and growth. We do this by providing unique technology and capabilities in catalyst research. Whether it’s developing new catalyst or optimization, customers tell us that we do this much faster and cheaper than they would be able to do themselves. They typically like the combination of our enhanced experimentation workflow with broad application knowledge. Next to this we have people on board with extensive experience at major companies in the oil, gas, coal, chemical and renewable industry. At these companies they faced similar challenges as our customers do today. Customers appreciate this ability to understand their real challenges. We operate at small scale and customers all quickly discover what it can bring in terms of safety, cost saving, speed and relevance if compared to larger scale experiments. In the end many customers decide to not only work with us as a service provider, they also install our technology in their own labs. This is typically done when the chemistry involved is of long term strategic importance and customers want to develop their own R&D capabilities.
