Tomorrow's Chemistry. Today.

Responsible. Economical. Available.

There's a perfect substitute for petrochemicals found in everyday products.
BioAmber produces it responsibly, economically and at scale.

Succinic Derivatives

 Butanediol is a chemical compound used in everyday products that is traditionally made from petrochemicals. BioAmber supplies BDO producers with the bio-based alternative that is cleaner, cheaper and of higher purity. As BioAmber continues to expand its operations and participation throughout its own value chain, the company plans to produce commercial quantities of BDO in the very near future.

Key Benefits


  • Bio-based succinic acid is a platform chemical leading to the development of other chemical building blocks used in a variety of tried, tested, new and innovative applications
  • Bio-based 1,4 BDO results in the greener production of everyday products that has a sustainable and positive impact on our environment
  • Bio-based 1,4 BDO is produced more cheaply than the petrochemical alternative
