Background
Urëk: Pioneer in Value Creation from Residual Biomass
At Urëk® , we specialize in transforming industrial waste into valuable resources through cutting-edge research, development, and innovation. As a leader in the bioeconomy, we help businesses unlock new value from their residual biomass, turning environmental challenges into profitable opportunities.
Since our founding in 2012, under the leadership of Álvaro Peralta — an expert in bioeconomy and president of CR Biomed — we’ve partnered with industries to convert their waste streams into marketable products. Our current projects span mariculture, poultry production, essential oils, and natural fibers, all progressing through various stages of development.
Our proprietary methodology streamlines and accelerates research, development, and scaling up, dramatically reducing the time required to get new products and technologies to market. Coupled with strategic alliances with leading research centers and specialized suppliers, we ensure every project’s success from concept to execution.
