twig secures second Smart Grant

No, you’re not seeing double.  And it’s not déjà vu…

We’re incredibly pleased to announce that twig has won our second Smart Grant of 2025!  As ever, competition for this award was extremely tough, with under 3% of applicants receiving funding.  Our ~£430,000 project is focused on making circularity a reality.  We’ve teamed up with Tate & Lyle Sugars to turn their low-value sugar waste streams into sustainable feedstocks for biofermentation, starting with fatty acids.

We all consume fatty acids everyday, whether in soaps, moisturisers, chocolate bars or meals, so finding a more sustainable way to produce them has huge benefits.

If you’re interested in developing novel and/or sustainable ingredients for your products then get in touch! info@twig.bio
