Scaling Innovation into Industrial Reality

FuranTek builds on years of research at the University of the Basque Country (EHU) to develop innovative and sustainable chemical production technologies.

Our patented catalytic technology has already demonstrated kilogram-scale production of high-purity bio-based 1,5-pentanediol. Currently in the pilot-scale development phase, we are preparing the transition toward commercial production.
