At the core of our platform is scalability, ensuring the ingredients we create are commercially viable and can easily be integrated with existing systems. Zentide is particularly effective at producing difficult-to-make materials which can be the key performance-enhancing ingredients in everyday products. Combined with our extensive technical know-how, Zentide allows us to push boundaries to develop sustainable products with improved performance.

NATURE TAILORED TO PURPOSE
Nature has found solutions to some of the most difficult problems. With Zentide, we can circumvent the limits of conventional biopolymer synthesis to access the full diversity within natural systems. This allows us to select desirable features, such as strong adhesion, and engineer in other desirable features, such as stiffness or thermal stability, to create bespoke solutions to meet the toughest challenges across a range of industries.

ENGINEERED BUILDING BLOCKS
Our bespoke solutions are industrially robust & designed for purpose. We combine the functionalities of several different naturally occurring proteins, such as strong adhesion, stiffness or thermal stability, to produce one ingredient with several functional benefits. By accessing conventionally difficult polymers with Zentide, we can deliver improved product performance, increased production capacity & more economic manufacturing that is sustainable by design.

THE POTENTIAL OF PEPTIDES
Composed of chains of individual amino acid building blocks, the characteristics & behaviour of peptides are determined by their exact amino acid sequence. By engineering this sequence, we can control their functionality & create peptides with specific desirable qualities, making them the perfect ingredients in our bespoke solutions.
With 20 amino acid building blocks to chose from, each with different chemical properties, the possibilities are vast. Even a short peptide of 34 amino acids can have more than 1.7 x 1044 possible sequences!

Medical Adhesives
Our peptide adhesives can be applied to improve advanced wound care, facilitating wound dressings & Ostomy bag seals that are de-bondable and display improved performance in wet & high-friction conditions.
Our peptide adhesives can be optionally transparent & de-bondable, and have been applied to security & optics, facilitating the temporary in-field adhesion of filters to optical sensors without interfering with optical transmission.
Our peptides can be used in personal care products, strengthening & protecting hair, restoring damaged strands by bridging breaks and enhancing the delivery of active ingredients whilst improving "time on target".
