Phytowelt GreenTechnologies GmbH

Allgemeine Informationen

Phytowelt GreenTechnologies GmbH is a young, innovative company offering contract development and production in industrial and plant biotechnology worldwide. Our tissue culture and genetic engineering know-how assists our clients for the optimization of plants in a natural way as well as utilization of secondary metabolits and enzymes for industrial use.

Phytowelt routinely applies key technologies such as in vitro cultivation of plants, cell fusion, transformation and catalysis technologies as well as plant analysis and molecular marker assisted breeding. Our approach to link industrial and plant biotechnology is maximizing the synergy from our platform technologies phytomining (high quality products like flavours & fragrances, pharmaceuticals, adhesives, etc.) and phytodiversity (plants: somatic hybridization/ protoplastfusion and douple haploid breeding) to support the aroma- and pharmaceutical industry and other users of secondary metabolits and enzymes of plants.
Phytowelt GreenTechnologies was created in January 2006 as a merger of Phytowelt GmbH and GreenTec GmbH (both created in 1998), a spin-off company from the Max-Planck-Institute for Plant Breeding Research, Cologne.
