Chromologics is a 2017 spin-out from the Technical University of Denmark that has built a precision fermentation platform to manufacture natural food colours. Its flagship product, Natu.Red, is designed to be a sustainable, scalable and cost-effective alternative to synthetic and extract-based reds and is compatible with kosher, halal and vegan diets. To date, the company has run trials with more than 90 food manufacturers across Europe and the United States, generating application data and early commercial interest. Chromologics plans to use its newest capital to complete regulatory submissions for Natu.Red with both the European Food Safety Authority and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Novo Holdings and the Export and Investment Fund of Denmark (EIFO) have backed the company since 2020. Including the latest raise, Chromologics has secured nearly €20 million in total funding.
