Verbio India Private Limited

What Verbio India Private Limited does

Verbio India Private Limited is the India-incorporated subsidiary of Verbio SE, a German publicly listed biorefinery company. Verbio operates an industrial biorefining platform that converts raw materials and residual products from regional agriculture into climate-friendly biofuels (biodiesel, bioethanol, and biomethane marketed as BioCNG/BioLNG), bio-based chemicals (glycerine and phytosterols derived from rapeseed oil processing), and agricultural co-products (distiller's grain and plant-based proteins for animal feed). The core technology is a proprietary biorefinery process that extracts multiple high-value components from a single biomass feedstock stream, supported by a closed-loop agricultural system that returns plant-based fertilizers and animal feeds to farming operations. The company maintains biorefinery facilities across Europe, Asia, and North America, enabling it to process regional agricultural materials close to source.

Verbio sells its products through direct B2B commercial relationships with enterprise buyers in six primary verticals: mobility and energy (fuel distributors and energy companies), chemicals (manufacturers of surfactants, lubricants, polymers), cosmetics and pharmaceuticals (skincare, body care, pharma producers), food (functional food ingredient manufacturers using phytosterols), animal feed (livestock and aquaculture operations), and agriculture (regional farming value chains). Pricing is contracted at the bulk industrial level based on volume, specifications, and market conditions; pricing is not publicly disclosed. The company is positioned to benefit from EU regulatory mandates including RED III and the Building Modernisation Act, which strengthen demand for biomethane and climate-friendly fuels. Group-level financial guidance indicates management forecasts EUR 160–180 million EBITDA for FY 2025/2026. Specific revenue, headcount, and operational details for Verbio India Private Limited as a standalone entity are not disclosed in available source material.
