Azotic Technologies
Developing a natural nitrogen-fixation technology for agriculture
Enabling naturally sustainable farming without nitrogen pollution
Nottingham based SME Azotic Technologies worked with CPI to develop and scale its technology from proof-of-concept to a commercial product, enabling market entry in the US in Spring 2019.
Azotic Technologies Ltd was established to commercialise a natural nitrogen-fixation technology that provides a solution to the overuse of chemical nitrogen fertiliser. Azotic’s technology was developed by Professor Edward Cocking, a leading expert on the biology of nitrogen-fixation, from Nottingham University.
Azotic worked with CPI to improve productivity, scale the process and deliver multi-ton manufacture.
