Unlock Bio

Turning fish waste into feed and fertilizer

A clean, science-driven process that recovers organic fertilizer, protein for animal feed, and other valuable products from fish-processing sidestreams — built close to where the waste is generated.

Products

Recoverable from fish-processing sidestreams — canneries, fish farms, and landing sites.

Core product

Organic Fertilizer

A nutrient-rich organic fertilizer and soil amendment made from fish-processing sidestreams — returning nitrogen, phosphorus, and organic matter to local soils, close to where the feedstock is generated.

Why Unlock Bio

Science-driven process

Deep science behind a practical process, built for the real world.

Clean process

Moderate temperatures and no harsh solvents — a process designed to run safely close to processors and communities.

Built for traceability

We are designing batch testing and end-to-end traceability into the process from day one — to meet feed and fertilizer regulations as we grow.

Local production

Processing close to the source means fresher feedstock — and keeps value in the local economy.

Circular by design

We turn fish waste — which would otherwise be dumped — into useful products, cutting environmental burden while creating local value.

Partnership-driven

We'd be glad to hear from fish processors and farms with sidestreams to put to use, feed and fertilizer buyers looking for reliable local supply, and partners or investors who want to build this out with us.

Process

From fresh fish-processing sidestreams to recoverable fertilizer, feed protein, and other valuable streams.

1

Sourcing

We partner with fish processors and farms to collect fresh sidestreams within hours of processing.

2

Hydrolysis

Controlled enzymatic hydrolysis tuned to the target product profile.

3

Separation

Multi-stream fractionation: protein hydrolysate, fertilizer, oil, and mineral fractions.

4

Quality

Quality control built around protein content, digestibility, contaminants, and microbiological safety.

Our process is designed for full traceability from raw material to finished product.

About

Unlock Bio is an early-stage bioprocessing company recovering value from fish-processing sidestreams. We pair deep scientific and process R&D with clean, locally-deployed plants that turn fish waste into organic fertilizer, protein for animal feed, and other valuable products.
