Production & Scale
At Pentasweet, we began with a pilot laboratory focused on one mission: to develop manufacturing processes that allows scaling up to large quantities of fermentation capacity. Building on the success of this foundational work, we’re now entering an exciting new phase—the construction of a demonstration-scale production plant scheduled for commissioning between Q4 2026 and Q1 2027.
This facility is designed to produce quantities of the new protein sweetener Brazzein in the quantities that would be equivalent to tens of thousands of tons of sugar annually. By the completion of the plant’s second phase, we anticipate achieving production volumes equivalent to Denmark’s total sugar consumption over a two-month period—providing a powerful, sustainable alternative to conventional sugar at scale.
