Finland| A microbial extract developed through research at the University of Helsinki is being scaled globally by spinout company Uute Scientific. The extract contains around 13,000 microbial species and is designed to restore natural microbial exposure for people living in urban environments through skincare products.Developed from Finnish nature and based on university research, the ingredient is already used in cosmetics by multiple international brands. Studies suggest it can support skin immune responses and help address reduced microbial diversity linked to urban lifestyles. The company is now expanding its market reach, with products already available in more than a dozen countries and further global growth planned, including potential future applications in advanced environments such as space missions.
