Chaincraft is a Dutch startup that manufactures fatty acids from local food waste, specifically pre-consumer plant-based organic residues. They use a two-step fermentation process to convert food waste into medium chain fatty acids, which is more sustainable with a lower carbon footprint than traditional palm oil-based fatty acids. The company currently operates a demo plant in Amsterdam and is planning to build a larger flagship factory in the Netherlands. Their products have a significantly lower carbon footprint compared to industry standards and offer a stable and local supply of sustainable chemicals. Chaincraft's customers include the animal nutrition industry, fragrance and flavors, home and personal care, and the lubricants market. In the episode the Commercial Manager, Jeroen van Dorp, dives into the downstream challenges and experiences of building a new market for circular fatty acids.
