DSM-Firmenich, an innovator in nutrition, health, and beauty, is proud to announce its partnership with Interstellar Lab, a biotech startup that develops biofarming solutions. Together, the two companies aim to spearhead advancements in botanical ingredients production, marking a significant leap forward in DSM-firmenich’s quest to expand and explore the boundaries of natural innovation in agrotech and to unlock new dimensions in olfactive richness and sustainable innovation.
This collaboration aims to pioneer an ingredient research program focusing on the impact of environmental conditions on plant yield and phenotype evaluation. Leveraging Interstellar Lab’s cutting-edge, AI-controlled environment and biotech expertise, the partnership seeks to reduce the climate impact of farming & preserve biodiversity in critical ecosystems.
“Our commitment to innovation drives us to continually expand the horizons of natural ingredients. By exploring cutting-edge agrotech advancements, we’re reshaping the landscape of species selection, anticipating challenges of production and sourcing, and prioritising the highest quality of ingredients. This dedication ensures we deliver the purest, and most authentic natural extracts for perfumery,” says Xavier Brochet, Global Head of Natural Innovation at dsm-Firmenich.
Interstellar Lab specialises in developing and operating advanced biofarming platforms to accelerate plant growth and trigger specific molecule production in plants. Their AI-environment-controlled bio farms optimise energy and resource consumption, capture CO2, and considerably improve the life cycle assessment of ingredients with a unique data-driven approach.
“Our biofarming platform represents a revolution in the perfumery landscape, understanding and addressing the current industry needs to provide renewable ingredients, responsibly sourced and produced, that inspire creators and respect the environment,” says Barbara Belvisi, CEO and Founder of Interstellar Lab.
