At Phytonext, we combine decades of expertise, cutting-edge innovation, and a shared passion for botanical science to create solutions that harness the full potential of nature. Our journey began with a vision to revolutionize the extraction of plant-based compounds, and today we are proud to be leaders in this field.
A History of Innovation
- 1990s: Groundbreaking research by GSK in the UK laid the foundation for understanding the health benefits of plants and advancements in process technology.
- 2010: Former GSK researchers joined forces with the innovation team from TOP in Wageningen, a hub of food and process technology, to develop a unique 1-step botanical extraction method.
- Early Years: Initial efforts focused on extracting compounds from tomatoes, carrots, and fiber hemp. A dedicated laboratory equipped with advanced tools like HPLC was established to ensure quality and precision.
Building a Legacy of Success
Throughout our journey, we’ve collaborated with leading companies like Bedrocan, Euroma, and Cargill, forming partnerships that drive innovation and deliver value. Our commitment to circularity has been evident in projects such as Eindeloos, which explored the reuse of fruits and vegetables in sustainable applications.
- Cannabis Research License: In recognition of our expertise, we received a license from the Bureau Medicinale Cannabis to conduct specialized research in this field.
- 2019: Phytonext expanded internationally with the opening of Becanext, a state-of-the-art facility in Berlin dedicated to extracting CBD.
- 2021: We developed a groundbreaking sub-micron platform, setting a new benchmark in extraction technology.
- 2022: Partnering with a group of Dutch pharmacists, we began producing pharmaceutical-grade extracts tailored for patient care.
