Recent Developments
In the very recent fourth-quarter earnings call, the company discussed its previously announced merchandise launch with an Aqua Concept, an innovative company based in Europe. Aqua Concept is releasing a new coolant which is based on BioAmber’s own succinic acid. Besides the provision of a much more sustainable footprint, this new merchandise delivers a number of improved performance features in comparison to other products within the market. Bioamber intends to forward to grow this new effective merchandise in partnership with Aqua Concept. Interestingly, Aqua Concepts happens to be just one of the many clients who is launching new products associated with Bioamber’s bio-succinic acid which it had been working with not just in the last few months, but a number of years and the plans to boost the demand for its other products in the future.
Considering its long-term growth strategy, the firm has made major progress in entering into the animal feed sales in PET markets. These markets have a target market size estimated to be about 0.4 million and 0.7 million tons of bio-succinic acid respectively, both of which are many times above the firm’s present production capacity. Regarding animal feed, a recent independent research revealed that the addition of succinic acid to animal feed with delivers significant benefits for both gut health and growth performance for nursery pigs. This result corroborates with preceding studies by BioAmber which demonstrate the minimum inhibitory concentration, of succinic acid relating to multiple pathogenic microorganisms, is much reduced compared to the content level for other organic acids in the market which suggests that bio-succinic can be said to be more economical and effective
However, for PET, the firm’s plans to replace isophthalic acid which is currently used in roughly 3 weight percent in the production of PET bottles. Bio-succinic acid is demonstrating the ability to decrease the cost along with the greenhouse gas effect of PET bottle production. Biopharma is scaling up this innovation through collaborations with its developmental partners located in China and Europe, where the firm has had three recently fruitful scale-up trials of manufacturing PET packaging resin. This will enable the company to advance with both PET and animal feed by 2019 to the level of major industry players.
