Our product

what is BGB Ultra™?

BGB Ultra™ is a high-purity cellulose nanocrystal produced with our proprietary oxidation process. It’s consistent, scalable, and used in over 200 published studies.”

The crystal size is 100 to 150 nm in length and 5 to 10 nm in diameter.

applications

BGB Ultra™ has been successfully used in 24 different end use applications. below are a few of the most important applications

Concrete

CNC increases the hydration of cement, making the resulting concrete stronger, less permeable and longer lasting.

coatings

Adding CNC to paints greatly enhance rheological, barrier and hardness properties.

drilling fluids

Cellulose nanocrystals greatly enhance the properties of water-based drilling fluids. This makes oil exploration safer and more efficient.

biomedicine

Tissue scaffolding, specialized medical excipients and antimicrobial biofilms are a few of the applications of CNC in medicine.

pickering emulsions

CNCs are excellent stabilizers in oil/water emulsions. The crystals go to the oil/water interface and greatly improve the droplet size and long term stability of the emulsions.

composites

Cellulose nanocrystals add strength, stiffness and improved barrier properties of composites. This makes it feasible to replace polymer based composites without sacrificing performance.

How we make BGB Ultra™

BGB Ultra™ is made using a proprietary oxidative process developed in-house and protected under patent. Our process ensures exceptional purity, high crystallinity, and consistent performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you produce cellulose nanocrystals via sulfuric acid hydrolysis?

No. We use a proprietary oxidative process that is easier to control and yields high-quality CNCs with fewer contaminants.

What biomass do you use?

We start with viscose-grade hardwood pulp, but our process works with many cellulose-rich biomasses in pulp form.

Are there any preservatives or other additives?

There are no additives in BGB Ultra.

How long will it take to get my order delivered?

We typically ship within 1-2 business days and our couriers can deliver typically within a week.

Do you offer volume discounts?

We do. Contact us for more information.

How do you store BGB Ultra?

Keep the gel refrigerated and covered when not in use.

Do you offer a dried product?

When you dry BGB Ultra under normal spray drying or oven drying conditions, a crosslinking reaction occurs that bonds the crystals together. This ruins the properties of the nanocellulose. You can dry the gel but you have to keep the temperature below 60 C.

Can I license this technology?

Yes. Contact us for more information.

ABOUT BLUE GOOSE BIOREFINERIES INC.

At Blue Goose Biorefineries, we’ve spent years developing and refining a clean, scalable way to produce cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) — and we’re proud to share that technology with researchers and innovators around the world.

Our story began with a breakthrough: a unique oxidative process that allowed us to produce CNCs with exceptional purity, uniformity, and batch-to-batch consistency — all without the use of sulfuric acid. From there, our journey has been a collaborative one. As researchers ourselves, we knew the real test of any material is how well it performs in the hands of others.

Over time, scientists across disciplines began adopting our CNCs — now sold as BGB Ultra — in a wide range of applications, from composite materials and cement additives to emulsions, coatings, and biomedical systems. Today, our material has been used in over 200 published studies, and we're just getting started.

Led by CEO Blaine Kunkel and CTO Sean McAlpine, our management team combines scientific expertise with a practical, scale-up mindset. Whether you're exploring CNCs in the lab or integrating them into a commercial process, we’re here to help you succeed — with fast shipping, real data, and ongoing support.

We also hold key intellectual property covering our production process and its use in high-value applications, including cementitious materials. If you're looking to bring CNC-based products to market, we offer licensing and partnership opportunities that can help you scale faster and smarter.

If you're a researcher, a formulator, or a commercial partner, we invite you to build with us.
