Cleaner, safer, more efficient chemical manufacture. A spinout from the University of Oxford, commercialising a novel biotechnology. Our ‘slot in’ technologies allow you to replace your heavy metal catalyst for hydrogenation reactions, or decarbonise existing redox biocatalysis processes all whilst operating within existing flow hydrogenation reactors.
From HydRegen's home page meta description and copy.
“HydRegen is led by an experienced, multidisciplinary team spanning science, scale-up, operations and commercialisation. Together, we have the expertise to take HydRegen’s biotech platforms from breakthrough technology to successful industrial adoption.”
“➡ 3 x CO2 savings compared to traditional metal catalysed hydrogenations ➡ benchmarking for paracetamol production ➡ clean and efficient chemistry ➡ >£2.6m clean tech funding ➡ supported by University of Oxford , Oxford University Innovation and Prof Kylie Vincent”
“HydRegen, the revolutionary bioscience company, is excited to announce the appointment of Matthew Hodges as Commercial and Operations Lead, directing the commercial strategy and assisting in the development of its lead product. Matt brings a strong background in building businesses for fundraising, winning public grant applications and creating successful partnerships in both commercial and scientific areas.”
“🚀 We are now looking to raise £8m, focusing on accelerating our growth, increasing joint-development capabilities and therefore fast-tracking licensing and revenue generation via commercial manufacturing.”
“We were delighted to win a place on the UK trade mission to San Francisco, led by Innovate UK Business Growth, which centered on attending SynBioBeta. This was an excellent opportunity to meet other leading UK companies in the sector as well as US-based partners and investors.”
“HydRegen, the Oxford-based biotechnology company enabling sustainable chemical manufacturing, has secured a £2.6 million investment as part of its latest fundraise, led by Clean Growth Fund , the UK clean-tech venture capital fund.”
“In March 2022, the company received £385,000 in funding from the UK Innovation & Science Seed Fund (UKI2S), alongside private investors, to work in collaboration with pharmaceutical and fine chemical companies wanting to reduce their costs and environmental impact.”
“Conference Participation : Invited to speak at numerous technical conferences and presented posters and flash talks.”
“Not only does this make it easier for us to scale, but it makes our technology transfer to partners and customers faster.”

“As the chemical manufacturing industry faces the dual pressures of sustainability and rising cost competition, it’s clear that next-generation technologies cannot rely on a “green premium” to succeed. While these emerging solutions offer significant benefits including reducing environmental impact, improving safety and fostering market growth, the challenges of implementation and cost must be carefully considered.”
