Opalia is the first Canadian company to make milk with mammary cells and in doing so, it is introducing "a new era of dairy." This functional, sustainable and ethical alternative to farmed dairy products replaces fetal bovine serum (FBS.)
Last year, Opalia achieved a proof-of-concept whole milk product with an artificial mammary duct and its new alternative to FBS helps to reduce costs and more.
Now, the innovative company making "milk minus the cow" is ready to start pre-pilot scale production of its cell-based milk for use in non-animal dairy products. The possibilities for growth are endless and as the company sees it, "Our milk is made for all dairy lovers interested in having a more conscious and sustainable diet."
