In September <strong>2023</strong>, Anke Domaske<br />
(now Anke Nagler),<br />
founder of Qmilk, said:<br />
Even if the development of biopolymers and<br />
fibres from milk-based protein was a great<br />
success, our main focus today is on dental care<br />
products for dogs and cats. This<br />
may sound strange, but<br />
our extensive research<br />
about 10 years ago<br />
also revealed a very<br />
positive influence of milk<br />
protein-based products<br />
on the oral flora. So, we<br />
not only put our emphasis<br />
on polymers and fibres, as<br />
described in the article, but<br />
also on other applications.<br />
After a couple of really<br />
successful years, however,<br />
for different reasons, the<br />
pandemic and its influence on<br />
the textile market on the one<br />
hand, but also changing personel<br />
and shifting priorities in our<br />
partner companies made it difficult<br />
recently to successfully market<br />
our initial products.<br />
Our current main focus on pet oral care<br />
showed very good market opportunities,<br />
and the success in Germany as well as in<br />
many other countries proves us right. You<br />
may want to check our website.<br />
But even if our focus today is on such<br />
kinds of products, we are still active in some<br />
segments of the initial applications and we are<br />
still interested to partner with companies that<br />
want to bring milk protein-based polymers and<br />
fibres to successful products into the market.<br />
