BACKGROUND
Incubation at X-Up in 2021, then at Shaker of Genopole in 2022, Rungis&Co and at Food’Inn Lab of AgroParistech. Integration of our own premises in 2024 and first pre-seed fundraising in 2023.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCTS / SERVICES / TECHNOLOGY
Food coating solution for fruits & vegetables that extends their shelf life and protects them against storage diseases. Applied after harvest, as a substitute for fungicides and coating waxes, this coating acts like a second skin and slows down the ripening of fruits & vegetables.
In addition, Proteme offers research services through collaborations with large groups from various sectors and helps them to substitute compounds derived from petrochemicals with natural molecules in their products.
CUSTOMER REFERENCES / COLLABORATIONS / HIGHLIGHTS
Two products developed to date: a coating solution for bananas and one for lemons. Both are tested in real conditions with prospective customers.
A collaboration with L’Oréal since 2022 on the development of a new hair fixing product.
COLLABORATIONS SOUGHT
As part of its development, Proteme is seeking to approach industrial equipment manufacturers who develop treatment application systems in the agronomic sector. Proteme is also interested in natural molecules with strong fungicidal or bactericidal power.
