We believe that answers to our most challenging problems can be found in natural ingredients. Every day we are inspired by the properties of the natural polymer that we work with and driven by the desire to turn these materials into incredible antimicrobial protection agents.

The Beverage Industry is facing a major problem when it comes to spoilage. There is large consumer demand for whole, natural and healthy juice products otherwise known as super premium juices. However, these juices have a limited shelf-life and are sold at a premium price, which is a potential for major loss to the beverage producer.

Chinova Bioworks is developing a natural, safe and effective antimicrobial Chitosan polymer with broad spectrum protection to enhance the shelf-life of premium juices. This technology will be the platform to launch into a wide range of applications from regular juices to the food industry, eventually evolving into cosmetics and medical applications.
