Renix Inc, Sustainable Separation and Purification Technology for Resource Processors
ClonBio Group Ltd, Market Leader and Large-Scale Producer of Renewable Energy and Animal Nutrition in Europe
Renix Inc and ClonBio Group Ltd are pleased to announce a multi-million dollar investment to accelerate the next stage of Renix’s corporate development.
“As we enter the next phase of our journey, we’re thrilled to have found a such a great partner in the agri-business space,” said Christine Haas, founder and President of Renix. “ClonBio is committed to a vision of dramatic change to methods and sources of production in the agri-food business. They have a seasoned team with a very successful commercialization record. We look forward to working together to transform processes and bring sustainable products to market.”
Having worked together on application development over the past two years, Renix and ClonBio subsidiary Pannonia Bio are cooperating on recovery of alternative protein from spent grain streams, to create a high-purity ingredient for food and feed use.
“Over the past two years ClonBio has been impressed by Renix’s technology and, just as much, by its dedicated and talented team, who advanced our soluble protein development efforts by leaps and bounds despite Covid. It is our honour to support the Renix team further with this investment,” said Mark Turley, founder and CEO of ClonBio.
Bioindustrial Innovation Canada and Southwestern Ontario Angels have been supporters of Renix from the company’s early days. As these organizations exit from the company, they are excited to see Renix taking the next steps with this strategic partnership.
“We’re proud of the accomplishments of the Renix team and that we were able to provide early support to the company. Today we’re pleased to see this investment attracted to a Canadian SME in the Cleantech space”, said Renix Board Chair and Investor Representative, Carmen Gicante. “We and our colleagues at BIC will continue to offer any support we can to help Renix grow.”
Renix will continue to pursue opportunities to develop value recovery processes in the agri-food processing space, as well as mining and water management, from the company’s office at The Grove at Western Fair District in London, Ontario.
