Unibaio (Accelerator)

Company Description: Unibaio develops biodegradable micro-nanocapsules that improve the delivery of agrochemicals to reduce their application rates up to 80%. By adding our particles, pesticides companies can offer a new range of products between the 100% biological formulas and the traditional chemical ones. We offer a new approach to reduce the environmental impact of agrochemicals, demanded by new regulations, keeping the chemicals farmers are used to using, but drastically reducing their toxicity. Unibaio's development is the result of 10 years of research in natural polymers and plant stress and is ready to Scale-up and commercialize. Our novel production process is 20x more efficient than reference papers, making it possible to think in this kind of tech for agricultural mass production. Among many interesting properties of our chitosan micro-nanoparticles, we highlight that they can be suspended in water and are compatible with all the chemicals active ingredients used in the most popular pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and fertilizers. With our encapsulation process we can offer agrochemical companies an unfair competitive advantage to capture the upcoming more regulated agrochemical market, and position them as leaders in the transition to more sustainable agriculture.
