Newcastle lab grown meat pioneer 3D Bio-Tissues hails 'huge global potential' for its innovative tech

The North East firm pioneering cruelty-free meat and leather says it has no intention of slowing, following a busy trading period which has seen it double lab space.

Newcastle based 3D Bio-Tissues has previously told how it is on the cusp of revolutionising food, fashion and healthcare markets with its patent-protected IP which has already created cruelty-free meat, human corneas and skin that could eventually be used to create leather. The company is owned by BSF Enterprise PLC which is listed on the main London Stock Market, and has issued interim results for the six months to March 31 highlighting a range of activities, including how it produced three small prototype fillets of meat last November as well as the UK’s first full-sized lab cultivated meat fillet in February.

3D Bio-Tissues also doubled lab space to 2,400 square feet and increased production capacity to 2,500 litres of its City-Mix supplement a year, its product which removes the need for the use of animal serum which is a byproduct of the agricultural processes. It has also engaged with over 70 cellular agriculture companies with 26 progressing to business opportunities.
