ZBiotics Mission:
GMO for Good
Genetic engineering has given us incredible things:
life saving medicines, stress-resistant and more
nutritious crops, production methods that use less
resources and don't require the killing of animals.
But this technology remains difficult to understand
outside of big corporations and university labs.
The result? People have come to question
the good this technology can do for the world.
We want to change that.


ZBiotics' mission is to use genetic engineering to build something new: products that improve everyday living in ways people can experience for themselves.
ZBiotics is out to create incredible experiences for
our customers, and to do so responsibly;
giving people the information they need to
make their own informed decisions about our
products. It's a new approach to genetic
engineering...
transparent, responsible,
& built to benefit you directly.
