LEVURIX is developing a proprietary platform that grows purpose-fermented biomass on undervalued agricultural co-product streams — then extracts multiple high-purity functional ingredients from that biomass, creating new value at every stage.
Agricultural and food-processing industries generate vast quantities of co-product streams that are undervalued or underutilized. Our platform converts these into high-purity functional ingredients through a two-stage approach: purpose fermentation followed by gentle extraction. By processing locally sourced Prairies feedstocks, LEVURIX is building a resilient, value-added supply chain that turns industrial bypass into a strategic asset for the province's bio-economy.
Agricultural and food-processing co-product streams — currently undervalued — become substrates for growing purpose-fermented biomass. Low-value inputs are transformed into a controlled, consistent biomass rich in functional compounds.
Our proprietary platform recovers multiple functional ingredient streams from that biomass — clean-label, allergen-free ingredients for food, nutraceutical, and personal care supply chains. Value is created at both stages.
The LEVURIX platform is designed to recover functional ingredients in their native state — delivering higher purity, preserved molecular structure, and clean-label compatibility from purpose-fermented biomass.
Ingredients are recovered without mechanical disruption, thermal degradation, or chemical solvents. The result is native-state compounds ready for food-grade formulations — allergen-free and non-GMO by design.
A single process run is designed to yield multiple distinct functional ingredients — including protein, polysaccharides, specialty antioxidants, and gut health compounds — from one feedstock input.
By maintaining cell integrity during extraction, the platform preserves the native molecular structures that give ingredients their functional properties — gel strength, emulsification, foaming, and bioactivity.
Multi-stream recovery from a single batch amortizes processing cost across several revenue streams — improving unit economics relative to single-product extraction approaches.
Patent pending. The LEVURIX platform is protected by a patent application covering process methods, compositions, and system architecture.
We follow a stage-gate approach — advancing only when the evidence supports it. Every stage has defined success criteria and a formal GO/NO-GO decision point, protecting against premature scale-up.
Lab-scale validation of the core extraction process and target product functionality with a university research partner.
Pilot-scale production with consortium partners. First customer samples. Process optimization for commercial-grade output.
Industrial-scale production in Alberta. Multi-stream commercialization. Export-ready functional ingredients for food and nutraceutical markets.
Our development model is designed to create Canadian jobs, retain intellectual property in Alberta, and build a circular bioeconomy that converts fermentation and agricultural co-products into export-ready ingredients — contributing to the economic diversification of Western Canada's food and biomanufacturing sectors.
Clean-label demand, allergen-free formulation requirements, and circular economy mandates are creating sustained demand for novel functional ingredients from sustainable sources.
LEVURIX is actively seeking partners for research collaboration and consortium development. We're looking for Alberta-based food manufacturers, agricultural processors, ingredient companies, and research institutions who share our interest in valorizing agricultural co-product streams through fermentation and functional ingredient production.
If your organization generates agricultural co-product streams, formulates with functional ingredients, or conducts food science research, there may be a strong fit.
