About the Company
GFBiochemicals is the only company to produce levulinic acid at commercial scale directly from biomass.
In 2008, a group of biobased chemical experts saw the significant potential of levulinic acid to replace petroleum-based products across a range of market sectors. GFBiochemicals was founded to develop the production technology needed for this
revolution in chemicals and biofuels.
GFBiochemicals demonstrated these breakthrough technologies in the Caserta plant, in partnership with the University of Pisa and the Polytechnic University of Milan. This commercial-scale plant was retrofitted with new conversion, recovery and purification technology.
