Company Profile

since 2008

Leading enterprise in bio-based new materials

      Jiangxi Academy of Sciences Biological New Materials Co., Ltd. is located in Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, with registered capital of RMB 206.50 million. We are dedicated to environmentally friendly bio-based materials and are a manufacturer of high-performance polylactic acid (PLA) materials and their monomers.

      Founded in 2008 and building on over a decade of technology from our founding shareholder Jiangxi Academy of Sciences Biotechnology Co., Ltd., we have continued to advance core technologies in non-grain biomass saccharification, lactic acid purification, lactide synthesis, PLA synthesis, and large-scale production of stereocomplex PLA, achieving major breakthroughs and owning world-leading core technology for the non-grain biomass-lactic acid-PLA green industry chain. Guided by the philosophy of "environmentally friendly, green ecology," we began building China's first integrated non-grain biomass-lactic acid-PLA production demonstration line in 2011, with the first-phase thousand-ton demonstration line completed and commissioned at the end of 2017.

      Since 1999, our founding shareholder Jiangxi Academy of Sciences Biotechnology Co., Ltd. has taken developing China's biomass-lactic acid-PLA circular economy as its mission. Through independent innovation, it developed world-leading high-purity L-lactic acid production technology with optical purity above 99% and quality indices exceeding GB2023-2003 and international standards including USP, EP, JP, BP, and FCC. A ten-thousand-ton high-purity chiral lactic acid production platform was built with mature lactic acid industry technology. The company also undertook and completed five national and provincial R&D projects related to high optical purity L-lactic acid and polymerized lactic acid, all passing appraisal as internationally advanced and domestically leading, with multiple technologies industrialized for strong economic and social benefits.
