Functional Technologies develops and commercializes proprietary, advanced yeast-based solutions to significant challenges in the food, beverage and healthcare industries. The Company's platform improves the performance of innate yeast functions, and prevents the formation of naturally occurring toxins and contaminants that either affect final product quality or are classified by the World Health Organization as probable human carcinogens. Functional Technologies' lead technologies include yeasts that prevent and reduce the formation of the foul-smelling hydrogen sulphide (H2S) and the carcinogens acrylamide and ethyl carbamate (more commonly known as urethane), by-products of food and beverage processing. These contaminants are found in many commonly consumed items, such as fermented food products and alcoholic beverages, and baked and fried foods. The Company markets its commercialized yeast products, primarily its hydrogen sulphide-preventing wine yeasts, through wholly owned subsidiaries in the U.S. and Europe. Its U.S. subsidiary, Phyterra Yeast Inc. and its associated sales office, is based in Napa Valley, California. For more information, please visit functionaltechcorp.com
