About Us

Chromatin is a biotech company developing and marketing innovative technologies and products that benefit the agricultural, energy, chemical, nutritional, and pharmaceutical sectors. Chromatin is unlocking the potential of plants to produce greater value and meaningful products for consumers, growers, seed producers, and bioprocessors. Chromatin is commercializing solutions which proactively address key societal challenges such as improving agricultural productivity and increasing renewable energy resources.

The company's mini-chromosome technology simultaneously introduces multiple genetic traits into plants, reducing the time and cost required to develop improved and novel crop-based products, such as medicines, biomaterials, textiles and nutritionally improved foods. Mini-chromosomes also provide unprecedented precision and control of new traits at every point in a plant's life cycle, from seed to field and beyond. Chromatin's gene stacking technology enables these products to be developed while allowing growers to enjoy the benefits of the most up-to-date agronomic traits, such as herbicide tolerance, pest resistance, and diseases resistance. Furthermore, these technologies will benefit the environment through decreased use of pesticides and fertilizers.

Now, by deploying a broad and unique intellectual property platform, Chromatin's elite team of experts is developing specialized sorghum feedstocks for the renewable energy industry. These next-generation, high-quality products are being designed to increase process yields and meet the precise performance requirements of the bioprocessors, including producers of liquid transportation biofuels, green power, renewable chemicals, and biomaterials. As the only energy crop that can provide starch, sugar and lignocellulose, Chromatin is committed to sorghum and the unmatched versatility that it offers as a pathway for sustainable biomass production.

Crop stewardship is at the core of Chromatin's values, and the company is equally focused on using its technology to introduce sustainable, healthy agricultural practices while enhancing commercial value and quality of life.
