Headquartered in Amsterdam, the company specializes in the development, production and sale of lactic acid and its derivatives, emulsifiers, enzymes and bio-preservation solutions. Corbion’s products are used to improve food quality and safety, extend shelf life, enhance nutritional value and support environmentally friendly materials.
The company’s core offerings include high-purity lactic acid, lactides for use in polylactic acid (PLA) bioplastics, and a range of specialty emulsifiers and enzymes for bakery, dairy, meat and plant-based applications. Corbion’s bio-preservation technologies help food manufacturers reduce waste by inhibiting the growth of spoilage organisms.

Corbion traces its roots back to the former starch and sugar business of CSM, which was demerged in 2013 to establish an independent platform focused on biobased solutions. Since then, Corbion has expanded its global footprint with manufacturing sites and application centers across Europe, the Americas and Asia. Key production facilities are located in the Netherlands, the United States, Brazil, Thailand and China, allowing the company to serve a diversified base of food, beverage, chemical and bioplastics customers worldwide.
The company is led by President and Chief Executive Officer Jan Ravenstijn, an industry veteran with extensive experience in specialty chemicals and sustainable ingredient businesses. Under his leadership, Corbion continues to pursue innovation through research partnerships and targeted investments, aiming to drive growth in high-margin segments such as advanced biomaterials and food preservation systems.
