Pioneering the Future of Bioproduction

Where
Fluid Mechanics
Meets Biology

Cellura was born from over 10 years of intensive research and development, long before its official incorporation in 2022.

At the crossroads of fluid mechanics and cell biology, our journey began with a single ambition: to solve one of the most persistent barriers in industrial cell production — shear stress. Inspired by nature’s own engineering, particularly the rotational mixing of magma deep within the Earth, our team developed a revolutionary low-shear mixing technology.

This biomimetic approach led to the creation of our innovation — a platform designed to preserve the integrity of even the most sensitive cells while enabling scalable, cost-effective bioproduction.

Origins

Since our inception in 2022, we have been dedicated to overcoming one of the biggest challenges in cell production: shear forces. By drawing inspiration from the Earth's natural rotational mixing—similar to the movement of magma at the planet’s core—we have developed a highly efficient, low-shear mixing system.

Our Vision

Transforming Bioproduction for a Healthier and More Sustainable Future.

We are united by a deep commitment to scientific excellence and breakthrough innovation. With a multidisciplinary team spanning biotechnology, engineering, and cell biology, Cellura is reimagining the way sensitive cells are produced — making industrial-scale bioproduction not only possible, but practical.

At the core of our mission is a dedication to:

  • Innovation — Simplifying and scaling bioproduction through intelligent, low shear technologies.
  • Collaboration — Working closely with pioneers in cell therapy, cultivated meat, and biomanufacturing to accelerate impact.
  • Impact — Empowering the development of life-saving treatments for cancer, diabetes, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and more — while advancing sustainable food systems for the planet.
