At COLIPI, we are dedicated to Fermenting Renewable Carbon For Generational Life Quality. Our innovative approach involves transforming renewable carbon into our signature product, Climate Oil, an eco-friendly alternative to traditional vegetable oils. This versatile oil serves as the sustainable foundation for high-quality consumer products in the cosmetics, home care & laundry, sustainable aviation, and other industries. By utilizing our carbon-light Climate Oils, businesses can achieve their corporate Net Zero Goals by significantly reducing GHG scope 3 emissions. Supported by our robust biotechnological platform, we utilize industrial off-gas containing O2, CO2, enabled by H2 or organic industrial side streams as the primary carbon source. Climate Oil is composed of triglycerides with a predominant composition of palmitic acid (C16:0), stearic acid (C18:0), oleic acid (C18:1), and linoleic acid (C18:2), which can be tailored to meet specific industry requirements. Join us in our mission to foster a sustainable future and elevate the standard of living, all while minimizing environmental impact.
