What We Do

We seek to be a world leader in the production of plant made pharmaceutical proteins.

What is biotechnology?
At KBP, we specialize in using plants to make proteins that are then used as pharmaceutical products.  So what exactly is biotechnology?  Biotech scientists use living organisms and processes to develop new technologies and products to improve our lives – vaccines that protect our children, agricultural techniques that generate stronger crops, industrial processes that help sustain the environment.

KBP and Biotechnology
Plant-based protein production is a faster, more efficient and less expensive way to deliver pharmaceutical protein products than traditional methods requiring complex bioreactors. The natural rapid growth properties of the tobacco plant enable us to produce proteins quickly and on a large scale. Because our system is plant-based, our protein products are completely animal-free.
