About CECUM Corporation
CECUM Corporation pronounced ”SEEK-UM” specializes in C5/C6 fermentable sugars that are derived from the lignocellulose biomass of the hemp plant by a process similar to how a rabbit turns fiber into usable food.
CECUM Co. is a private, Federally incorporated, Canadian corporation registered in the province of Ontario, consisting of the board of directors and management team who oversee the operations.
Through its proprietary technologies, CECUM Co. is rapidly reducing the processing costs of lignocellulose based C5/C6 fermentable sugars by maximizing the additional revenue streams provided by the complete deconstruction of the industrial hemp plant.
Mission Statement
”To transform industrial hemp into food, fiber, extracts and fermentable carbon sugars, the building blocks for a bio-renewable future, while combatting global warming, improving soil health and reducing plastic pollution.”
