Strengthening the Presence of Biocatalysts in North America

Strengthening the Presence of Biocatalysts in North America

As part of our global growth strategy, we´re realigning our North American food, baking and beverage enzymes business.

The North American market is now one of the largest sales regions for the BRAIN Biotech Group company Biocatalysts and its strategic intent is to substantially grow its presence in the North American markets. To provide a seamless customer experience, Biocatalysts is now aligning its North American Food, Baking & Beverages enzyme business under the leadership of Ludwig Klermund, VP North America. Ludwig and team will be working closely with the Europe based teams to drive innovative solutions for the Biocatalysts food enzymes business whilst giving their customers the local support they require.

Merging of two US entities

To enhance service and expand the product offerings in the US, Biocatalysts has merged their two US entities: Biosun Flavors & Food Ingredients, which serves the Baking, Beverages, Grain Processing, and Dressings & Sauces industries with enzymes, flavors, and colors, and Biocatalysts Inc., which specializes in enzyme solutions and fermentation services for dairy, flavor processing, and protein hydrolysis. Now fully operating under the Biocatalysts brand from the office and manufacturing site in Tampa, this transition strengthens the brand identity and aligns the US operations with Biocatalysts global business. Effective immediately, all documentation, labels, and branding will reflect the Biocatalysts name.

As part of this transition, Biocatalysts is also integrating Biocatalysts Inc. customers into the Tampa operations, ensuring smoother processes and an enhanced service experience.

These changes build on the continued expansion, following the 2023 acquisition of Breatec, WeissBioTech, and Biosun Flavors & Food Ingredients from the parent company, BRAIN Biotech AG. This strategic move solidifies the foundation of #BRAINBiocatalysts, proudly operating under the Biocatalysts brand worldwide.

With these developments, Biocatalysts is reinforcing its commitment to innovation, efficiency, and superior service for its customers across the US and beyond.
