Available technologies

Knowfort's technology portfolio consists of three categories:

  1. Commercially proven technologies
  2. Industrially proven technologies, but not yet fully commercialised
  3. Early embryonic technologies

Obviously commercial technologies, such as Symphase to produce Freshure Coatings for food packaging, are ready to be implemented by food-packaging industry at large. For the 2nd category, we are looking for early adopters who see the added value and want to always stay one step ahead of the competition. For the technologies in 3rd category, we are aiming to work with innovative companies who would like to cooperate with us in advancing these early technologies.

Below you can find a list of our technologies which are either already commercial or have been proven on an industrial scale. Please contact us to learn more about the technologies in the 3rd category.

Our team of skilled technicians and scientists will help you through every step during the technology transfer process. Even after technology implementation, our technical service and trouble shooting department will be at your service to get the best out of our technologies.
