About AuX Labs
AuX Labs is a Toronto-based food technology startup using precision fermentation to produce recombinant casein, the structural protein behind cheese melt and stretch. The company leverages existing global brewing capacity to scale animal-free dairy proteins at price points that compete with conventional dairy, and is targeting foodservice partners such as pizzerias and cafes for its first launches. AuX Labs self-affirmed its casein ingredient as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) in April 2025.
