At Hexsor, we are thrilled to announce our collaboration with a prominent Scottish SME on an innovative new smart photobioreactor project. This exciting venture represents a significant shift for Hexsor as we transition from our established focus on algae analysis for environmental growth prevention to supporting commercial production. Over the next six months, we will be leveraging our expertise to deliver an OEM solution designed to optimize algae growth for our client’s cutting-edge biotechnology services.
Expanding Horizons with a Smart Photobioreactor
Our client, renowned for their fully automated algae growth optimization services, serves a diverse range of biotechnology stakeholders—from algae producers to researchers. Their sophisticated smart photobioreactor is specifically designed for algae strain development, enabling rapid testing in controlled environments. Eager to enhance their offering with ultra-accurate monitoring capabilities, they approached Hexsor to develop a bespoke sensor solution.
When the development team reached out to us, our answer was a resounding “Yes!” We are constantly seeking new opportunities to develop technological solutions that help our clients achieve their goals, especially when those opportunities are unique and challenging. We are hopeful that this project will mark the beginning of a productive and long-lasting partnership within the U.K. biotechnology sector.
A Fruitful Collaboration Begins
Last week, members of the Hexsor Team traveled from our Liverpool base to Scotland to meet face-to-face with our client and kick off the commissioning of our OEM solution for their photobioreactor project. During our visit, we received a personal tour of their impressive lab space and gained a deeper understanding of the project and their future plans.
