The origin of the company’s name, NapiFeryn BioTech (NFB in short), is a combination of two names of proteins that are obtained from rapeseed: napin and cruciferin. The idea to set up a company dealing with extraction of vegetable proteins, rapeseed being the first one to try, emerged in 2013. It was then that two biotechnologists, Magdalena Kozłowska and Piotr Wnukowski met each other while working for an international pharma corporation in the Netherlands. The founders decided to set up their business in Poland. NapiFeryn BioTech was thus established in 2014, with its operations now located at Bionanopark, a science and technology park in the city of Łódź.

Meat production is characterised by considerable waste of calorific value. In addition, if the grain now used as fodder were directly used as food for humans, we would be able to provide nutrition to additional 3.5 billion people.
In the meantime rapeseed contain about 20% of high-quality protein. So far it has not been used as a food component. The NapiFeryn technology makes it possible to retrieve all protein contained in rapeseed, which makes the proposal unique worldwide.
