Galaxy Biosolutions AB

Galaxy Biosolutions is a Swedish biotechnology company that specializes in precision fermentation to create sustainable food ingredients and fine chemicals. Founded in 2023 by a team from Chalmers University of Technology, the firm leverages unconventional, non-conventional yeast strains and advanced genetic tools. By engineering these microbes, the company aims to optimize fermentation processes, replacing high-energy chemical methods with more sustainable alternatives that can utilize biowaste from the dairy industry, such as whey, as a feedstock.

The company's primary focus is the development of next-generation sweeteners, such as tagatose, intended to serve as direct, sustainable replacements for sugar in various food products. This technology addresses both the global demand for cost-effective, high-quality sweeteners and the environmental challenge of managing dairy by-products. By transforming agricultural waste into high-value ingredients, Galaxy Biosolutions provides a circular solution that reduces environmental impact while offering scalable biotechnological innovations for the food and pharmaceutical industries.
