About Chinova Bioworks About Chinova Bioworks Inc Chinova Bioworks is a Canadian food-tech company founded in 2016 to revolutionize the food and beverage industries by introducing natural and sustainable ingredients derived from white button mushrooms. The company's signature ingredient, Chiber™, helps reduce food waste for manufacturers by improving the quality, freshness, and shelf-life of their products while providing broad-spectrum protection. Chinova's clean-label technology reduces reliance on artificial ingredients and aids in lowering food waste. The company has raised $10.5M in investment and recently became a finalist in the Government of Canada's Food Waste Reduction Challenge. Chiber™ is a groundbreaking fiber extracted from upcycled white button mushroom stems and is a natural antimicrobial used to enhance various beverages' quality, freshness, and shelf life. It provides broad-spectrum protection against commonly caused spoilage microorganisms, including pathogenic bacteria, providing a natural and healthy alternative to artificial additives. Being allergen-free and with no sensory impact, Chiber™ extends the shelf life of beverages without affecting their taste, texture, or appearance. Chiber™ is approved for use in North America and 70 other countries, is certified as vegan, Kosher, and Halal, and is organic and non-GMO compliant. As a natural antimicrobial, Chiber™ is the breakthrough brewers need to provide a sustainable solution to provide beverage stabilization and preserve the taste of their alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Recently, the company introduced MycoKleer™, an advanced fining agent that effectively targets the quick removal of unwanted particles from beverages such as beer, cider, seltzer, spirits and moonshine. As a cutting-edge solution for brewers and beverage manufacturers, MycoKleer™ stands out as a vegan, all-natural processing aid that surpasses the conventional use of artificial and animal-based agents for achieving beverage clarification.
