Alpine Bio
Building the world's most efficient protein factory in plants.
Alpine Bio is pioneering plant molecular farming, leveraging plants as living bioreactors to produce high-value proteins at unmatched scale, cost, and sustainability. The company has successfully produced casein, the key dairy protein responsible for milk’s functional properties. In addition, Alpine Bio has developed a proprietary plant-based protein that replicates the functionality of whey protein at a fraction of the cost and environmental footprint.
Notable Achievements
- Expressed over 15 complex proteins in plants and filed over 40 patents.
- Created the first plant-derived casein.
- Created a plant-based protein with superior functionality to whey protein at half the GHG footprint.
