Novozymes A/S was a Danish biotechnology company specializing in enzymes, microorganisms and other biological solutions for industrial and consumer applications. Its technologies were designed to help customers improve production efficiency, reduce resource consumption and develop more sustainable products.
The company supplied biological solutions for industries including food and beverages, agriculture, household care, bioenergy, textiles and other manufacturing activities. Its offerings included enzymes used in baking, brewing, animal feed, detergents, biofuels and industrial processing, as well as microbial products intended to support agricultural productivity and environmental performance.
Novozymes was established in 2000 after being separated from Novo Nordisk and served customers internationally through research, development and commercial operations across multiple regions. In 2024, Novozymes combined with Chr. Hansen Holding A/S, creating Novonesis, a biosolutions company focused on enzymes, microorganisms and related biological technologies. Novozymes A/S is therefore primarily a historical company name associated with the business now operating under the Novonesis name.
