Avantium

Avantium Avantium is a pioneer in the emerging industry of renewable and sustainable chemistry. From invention to commercially viable production processes.

We seek to take part in the opportunities of the transition towards a circular econo¬my, with the goal of creating value for our stakeholders and society as a whole. Avantium is a leading chemical technology company and a forerunner in renewable chemistry. Based on extensive experience and advanced catalytic research Avantium develops efficient processes and sustainable products made from biobased

materials. Avantium offers a breeding ground for revolutionary renewable chemistry solutions. One of Avantium’s success stories is the YXY technology®, with which it created PEF: a completely new, high-quality plastic made from plant-based industrial sugars. Avantium is working on a host of other groundbreaking projects such as a second generation technology process, or biorefinery technology, to produce sugars for the production of chemicals and fuels from non-food materials. The proprietary process is highly feedstock-flexible allowing use of forestry residues (e.g. woodchip), corn-stover, bagasse, sugar beet residue and produces a high purity 2G glucose product and lignin for energy and other applications; all in near quantitative yield. Avantium’s offices and headquarters are based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. Over 140 highly skilled colleagues representing 20 nationalities, Avantium fosters a dynamic and enthusiastic workplace that is constantly seeking new ways to improve and expand the impact of advanced catalytic research & technology. We ask of our employees what we ask of our company: collaborative, open-minded and results-driven creativity. In an ever-changing world Avantium is ambitiously chasing exciting new ideas and initiatives.

Earlier this week we welcomed an enthusiastic group of future chemistry teachers from Fontys University of Applied Sciences and gave them an inspiring lecture about sustainable chemistry, as well as tours through our newly open Polymer Processing Center and CO2 conversion demonstration units. We are always eager to meet the next generation of scientist and share our knowledge and expertise.

We’re thrilled to announce that Albert Heijn will be using Avantium's PEF for packaging of its own-brand products. A new fruit juice bottle produced by Refresco will be the first PEF application to be introduced in its stores — and will make Albert Heijn the first supermarket chain to use our 100% plant-based, fully recyclable PEF polymer for its packaging. https://www.avantium.com/press-releases/albert-heijn-to-use-avantiums-100-plant-based-pef-for-packaging-of-own-brand-products/
