Our Vision
Our world today faces unprecedented challenges; significant increases in the human population, unsustainable production practices and inadequate environmental conservation.
Meaningful changes to our current practices can only happen if they are supported by ambitious, proven, cost effective and sustainable solutions.
BluePlanet believes that its products have the potential to change the world for the better. We offer highly effective, economical and sustainable solutions to the challenges faced by our planet’s environment and its global food supply chain.
Our aim is to become a global leader in bio-solutions by:
- enhancing global food production sustainably;
- promoting a cleaner and healthier natural environment; and
- reducing hunger and poverty.
Mission Statement
BluePlanet believes in the power of nature-based formulations to transform the Best Farming Practices of our global food producers and to address food supply shortages and worldwide environmental degradation that result from unsustainable practices.
We are spearheading a yet untapped technology based on bacterial solutions that provides exceptional benefits in terms of increased crop yields, agribusiness economics, food quality and environmental remediation capabilities.
Based on trials undertaken across five continents, we have overwhelming evidence that our bio-solutions can resolve the critical food and environmental issues challenging our planet. BluePlanet has demonstrated that these objectives can be achieved in a truly scalable and sustainable way.
About Us
BluePlanet is a biotechnology company developing and producing bacterial formulations that enhance the recycling process of nutrients and waste for applications in agriculture, aquaculture, wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.
We are continuously pioneering new formulations, investing in the future development of leading edge technologies, and finding new and sustainable ways to address global food production and environmental challenges.
In agribusiness, our breakthrough formulations significantly enhance manure management, increase crop yields, restore soil health, and reduce reliance on chemical fertilizer and pesticides, while vastly improving farmers’ economics.
Our technology optimizes both anaerobic and aerobic processes to improve effluent qualities, while substantially lowering operating costs of wastewater treatment plants and improving the economics of biomass/biogas facilities. Our solutions are very effective at in-situ remediation of oils spills and downstream waste from industry, agriculture and other pollution sources encountered in contaminated bodies of water and soil.
Breakthrough Science
BluePlanet has unique technological expertise able to formulate and stabilize biologically active products targeted to specific applications that can increase efficacies in agriculture, aquaculture, wastewater treatment and environmental remediation.
SPECIES SPECIFIC FORMULAS
BluePlanet has developed the unique ability to formulate species-specific bacteria products, representing a paradigm shift in the industry. Unlike our competitors who focus primarily on basic bacillus and pseudomonas strains, our products have a much broader selection of genuses and species with significantly greater capabilities and benefits.
STABILIZATION TECHNOLOGIES
We have developed the scientific expertise required to stabilize our formulas through the complex methods of biochemical and process technologies. This proprietary edge allows us to selectively grow, stabilize, blend and re-stabilize individual strains of bacteria into biologically active products with long shelf lives.
Social Impact
BluePlanet is committed to the fundamental principle of developing a long-term social and environmental impact strategy directed towards population segments at the Base of the Pyramid in emerging and frontier markets.
Our work to date
BluePlanet entered into a partnership in 2013 with a Kenya-based distributor to provide subsidized bio-solutions through a subsistence farmers kit designed to help poor farmers grow cash crops and improve their livelihood.
BluePlanet works in townships in Southern Africa to establish microenterprises funded by local governments and apply our solutions in outhouses/latrines to significantly reduce flies, odors and improve the general health conditions and downstream water quality.
