Resindion Q&A

  1. What year did your company begin manufacturing materials for enzyme
    immobilization?
    Early 2000’s
  2. Can you give some historical background about your company – how/why did
    it become a producer of enzyme immobilization materials?
    Resindion became a producer of enzyme immobilization materials to overcome the challenges of using free enzymes, such as difficulty in recovery, limited stability, and high operational costs. Immobilizing enzymes on methacrylic resins enhances their stability, allows for reuse, and simplifies separation from reaction mixtures, reducing costs and supporting sustainable processes. Everything started with the well-known and established Sepabeads EC line, which was later expanded and updated with the Relizyme line. This strategic move aligns with the company’s vision to support increasingly green and eco-friendly processes. All of this was made possible by utilizing and merging the extensive knowledge and know-how on methacrylic supports from the parent company, Mitsubishi Chemical. This expertise enabled the development of robust and effective immobilized enzyme systems combining high performance with environmental sustainability.
  3. What industries do you supply?
    For Enzyme Carriers: Environmental, Food, Nutra, Pharma mostly. Together with Diaion, Sepabeads and Relite Ion Exchange and Adsorbent resins we offer solutions that span across a wide range of industries, supporting any application that requires specialized purification needs.
  4. What is the maximum batch size your company can produce?
    This is highly dependent on the specific product / product features to be manufactured, typically approx. 1 ton.
  5. What is your standard lead time?
    Our standard lead time is typically a few months for industrial quantities. However, this may vary, either shorter or longer, depending on the specific characteristics of the product and the volume required.
  6. What makes your materials special?
    The ability to provide various functional groups in different particle size distributions (PSD) and porosities, the capacity to utilize polymerization processes developed and optimized over many years, the high mechanical and chemical resistance making them compatible with continuous industrial processes, the capability to undergo cleaning in place (CIP), the food contact compliance (MOCA), and the accumulated know-how over the years as one of the world’s first producers of these materials. These features together ensure that the supports are versatile, durable, and suitable for demanding industrial enzyme immobilization applications, combining advanced materials science with practical operational benefits. Resindion’s final mission is to provide reliable carriers for multi-tons industrial biocatalytic applications.
  7. Anything else you want people to know?
    Resindion stands as one of the most established players in the market, supported by a long history and a broad, cross‑industry network of expertise. Our strength is further reinforced by our parent company, Mitsubishi Chemical, one of the world’s pioneers in polymer resin manufacturing. Customers choose us, and stay with us over the years, because of our reliability, our commitment to confidentiality, and the trust-based relationships we build. Just like the strong and lasting bonds formed between our Relizyme resins and the enzymes they immobilize, we aim to create equally durable connections with our partners.
