## About

Founded in 2013 and based in California, US, ZymoChem, Inc. engages in the research, development, and production of bio-based materials and chemicals used in textiles and hygiene products. The company was founded by its CEO, Harshal Chokhawala, and CSO, Jon Kuchenreuther. In January 2024, ZymoChem, Inc. raised venture funding from Mitsubishi Estate and Prime Partners.

ZymoChem provides a carbon-efficient bio-manufacturing platform, which is a microbial platform that leverages carbon-conserving (C2) microbes to convert renewable feedstocks into high-value products, mainly biomaterials for applications in hygiene, textiles, plastics, and coatings.
