Moving nature forward.

We're entering the era of biology, the moment its tools become powerful enough to remake industry. Granatum works at that frontier, turning living science into products people can actually use.

From the gene to the finished product, we help your company gain "bio-superpowers"


Explore our individual brands:

Granatum challenges established value chains through the engineering of living matter.

The traditional path. Extract and consume. We keep learning that we cannot keep going like this.

The biosynthetic path. Biology-driven design and manufacture. Sequencing got affordable. Computation got powerful. Bio-manufacturing became reliable. Biology is now a way to make materials, medicines, food, and clean processes that industry could not make before.

One company, the whole stack.

Most of the field does one of these. We integrate all three, so nothing gets lost between vendors.

Four brands, one company.

GreenFort

Products that make regenerative agriculture easier and more affordable, by multiplying the effect of both biological and conventional inputs.

ZenGen

Genotyping and sequencing to create better health and wellness insights: DNA-based, non-diagnostic guidance for practitioners.

Drenova

Biology that solves what commodity chemicals can't: enzyme and bacterial treatments for odor, grease, and wastewater.

Auragen

Genomics that accelerates plant breeding, so growers reach stronger varieties years sooner.

Give your company bio-superpowers.

Granatum was built to work alongside our customers' product and technology teams, and to make them stronger, not to replace them. We work with companies that need results and de-risking, not papers.

Our story.

When the pandemic hit, it took our workplace down with it. What remained was a small team and a kind of sandbox: a handful of technologies with real potential but no product, no company, and suddenly no ground beneath us. It arrived at the exact moment the world felt, all at once, how fragile our society and our planet really are. We decided that was a reason to build, not to wait.

We raised a modest seed round and learned fast that biotech, like any high-tech environment, is expensive, complex, and unforgiving. As we raised infrastructure and fought to stabilize our processes, we came close, more than once, to running out of air. A company is not anaerobic: cut off its funding and it suffocates. We kept breathing, barely, and we kept building.

During the pandemic we went deep into genotyping. We set out to build a COVID test made entirely in Mexico, and we did. The rules of the market closed that door, but it opened a far bigger one. The prize was never a single test or product. It was control of the entire pipeline, from the design of an organism to the finished solution in someone's hands.

On a foundation that began with a licensed process to manufacture a probiotic biopolymer for agriculture, we kept adding: genotyping, then sequencing and bioinformatics, then the design and optimization of species themselves. Each capability made the next one possible, until they became a single, integrated stack.

People say Mexico is blessed with natural resources. It is. But we have not been smart about turning that wealth into progress without harming the ecosystems it comes from, and we intend to change that course. Our biomanufacturing today runs as a zero-waste process: it takes scraps from the fishing industry that would otherwise be thrown away, and it hands value back to the communities that now prepare that material to supply us.

As our understanding grows, so does our ambition: bigger problems, higher stakes. We mean to show that a developing economy has something the world needs, a new kind of progress that lifts local communities and protects the environment as profoundly as science has advanced modern life.

Built by people who've done the hard version.

Our team has trained and performed research at MIT, Harvard Medical School, Universität Potsdam, IPADE, UNAM, and FH Reutlingen. We work alongside world-class partners to build solutions that work. The advantage isn't any single lab. It's that the whole stack lives under one roof, so quality and speed compound instead of leaking at every handoff.

Come build with us

We have no open roles right now. We still want to know you.

We run summer programs and research residencies, and we keep a list of people we would call the day something opens.

We do not need a cover letter. Tell us what you have done.

Marks belong to their respective owners. Their presence describes a working relationship, not an endorsement.

Let's talk.

We work with growers, agrochemical companies, and health and wellness businesses whose problem does not fit inside a single discipline.

Usually they have already tried it the other way: intermediaries, multiple vendors trying to connect with their teams, and risking ending up with great documents but no real solution deployed.

If that is your problem, we should talk.
