Under this partnership, Investissement Qu\u00e9bec provides Aplantex with access to its technology demonstration plant in Quebec and to its technical innovation experts to carry out the final stages of producing valuable plant-based molecules intended for the cosmetic, natural health, agri-food, and, ultimately, pharmaceutical industries.<\/p>\n

This partnership accelerates the deployment of our innovative green biotechnology<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The demonstration plant, a state-of-the-art explosion-proof facility of Investissement Qu\u00e9bec, has equipment that allows the extraction of molecules of interest from any biomass, including plants. Grinding, the use of solvents, concentration, and purification are four of the steps in the extraction of bioresources that are used in advanced industrial production and bioproducts, such as those from Aplantex.<\/p>\n

Thanks to this partnership, Aplantex, which produces certified molecules sought for their antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anti-aging properties, can refine its extraction process, a key step in producing the molecules specified in its existing collaboration agreements.<\/p>\n

“Investissement Qu\u00e9bec is a growth partner for Quebec businesses, to whom we offer financing and tailored technological support to stimulate innovation, productivity, and sustainable growth. This production partnership with Aplantex fits perfectly within our mission,” says Fran\u00e7ois Gingras, Vice President, Innovation at Investissement Qu\u00e9bec.<\/p>\n

“This partnership with Investissement Qu\u00e9bec represents a strategic asset for Aplantex’s business plan. The lessons learned from this production partnership, alongside the construction of our pilot plant, are important milestones towards the commercialization of the molecules developed to date by our scientific team,” emphasizes Mr. Patrick Charest, B. Sc., Eng., mMBA, Chief Executive Officer.<\/p>\n
