Profile

Bluepha (蓝晶微生物) is a synthetic biology company founded in 2016 that specializes in the industrialization of bio-based materials, primarily polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA). Headquartered in Shanghai, the company utilizes its proprietary Synbio OS platform to engineer microbial strains for the production of marine-degradable bioplastics, regenerative medical materials, and functional ingredients.

The company operates a large-scale manufacturing facility (BioFab) in Yanchang, Jiangsu, which has reached a production capacity of 15,000 tons per year, with plans to expand to 25,000 tons. Bluepha is active and continues to advance its “Biohybrid” technology, which optimizes carbon source conversion—including the use of waste oils—to improve production efficiency and reduce carbon footprints.

Bluepha is a private, venture-backed entity that has raised significant capital from investors including Zhongping Capital, Hillhouse Capital, and various state-backed funds like the Jiangsu Huanghai Financial Holding Group. The company maintains a collaborative business model, often partnering with industry leaders to develop and commercialize new product lines.
