Primient, a global leader in biomanufacturing, announced it will buy the remaining ownership stake in Primient Covation, LLC. This move makes Primient the sole owner of the company. It marks an important step in Primient’s growth in the bioeconomy sector.
This acquisition is part of Primient’s broader strategy to strengthen its leadership in biomanufacturing. The company has recently announced new partnerships, including one with Sustainea, and the creation of the iPROOF venture. Primient Covation is a key player in the U.S. biomanufacturing industry. It is known for its expertise in fermentation and bio-based solutions.
Founded in 2000, Primient Covation supplies products to many markets. These include cosmetics, personal care, textiles, fashion, coatings, and functional fluids. The company produces Bio-PDO (1,3-propanediol) under the brands Zemea® and Susterra®. It delivers renewable, bio-based solutions worldwide.
Jim Stutelberg, Primient’s CEO, said the purchase reflects the company’s commitment to leadership. “We’ve been involved as an owner from the start,” he explained. “We know this business well and believe strongly in its growth potential. Owning 100% of Primient Covation will help accelerate our growth in industrial biomanufacturing.”
Until now, Primient Covation was a joint venture with Huafon Group. The operation is based at Primient’s facility in Loudon, Tennessee. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, pending regulatory approvals.
This move highlights Primient’s focus on expanding its role in sustainable manufacturing and renewable solutions.
