Cascade is a developer of enzyme immobilization kits designed to improve the sustainability and efficiency of existing processes of chemical manufacturing
Industrial enzymes can lose activity quickly, require frequent replacement, and become too expensive for broad green-chemistry adoption.
R&D Focus
Enzyme immobilization, protein stabilization, reusable biocatalysts, and sustainable chemical manufacturing.
Innovative Solution
The Body Armor platform immobilizes and protects enzymes so they can operate longer and under harsher industrial conditions.
