Welcome to the InnCoCells project
InnCoCells is a Horizon 2020 project launched in 2021 aiming to develop innovative plant-based production processes for the commercial exploitation of scientifically validated cosmetic ingredients using profitable and sustainable cell cultures, hairy roots, aeroponic cultivation, and greenhouse/field cultivation. The photograph above was taken at our seventh project meeting in Nancy, France, May 2024, and includes InnCoCells consortium partners as well as some members of our Stakeholder Group and Scientific Advisory Board.

Our first brochure introducing the InnCoCells project is also still available. It provides key facts and figures, outlines the concept, objectives, and organization of the project, describes some of its wider (non-technological) activities, and summarizes the partners involved and their roles.
OVERVIEW OF THE InnCoCells PROJECT
OUR RESEARCH
The InnCoCells project will develop scientifically validated cosmetic ingredients derived from sustainable cell cultures and plants cultivated in the greenhouse, field or in aeroponic facilities.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
We are developing production processes based on plants, plant cells and agricultural waste streams as well as assays for the scientific validation of cosmetic ingredients.
OUR PRODUCTS
We are engaging with multiple stakeholders in the cosmetics industry to promote the sustainability and efficacy of our cosmetic ingredients.
