We make a science of it

We challenge the status quo. With our love for food, for our environment and our passion for science. Our goal is to develop plant-based products that are perfectly tailored to consumer needs through culinary as well as scientific know-how and innovation.

FUTURE FOODS: A NEW STANDARD OF PLANT-BASED MEAT

In terms of taste, naturalness and health, it is becoming increasingly difficult to meet consumer demands. Traditional nutritional approaches will no longer suffice in the medium to long term - and that is precisely why we use biology as inspiration to create the meat of the future.

Inspired by nature, we combine proprietary extrusion and fermentation technologies, using only natural ingredients. In doing so, we design and structure plant-based proteins in every size, shape and fibrous texture, and believe that in the future, plant-based proteins will surpass animal-based meats in taste, sustainability, health, efficiency and price. We are committed to using only natural ingredients and no additives in all of our products. In doing so, we are setting an entirely new standard in the plant-based category, making it a truly healthy and sustainable option for all. Truly better than meat from animals.

PLANTBASED & CLEAN

We make our juicy meats using peas, sunflower and oats, together with a bit of rapeseed oil, water and Vitamin B12. We have set a goal for each component to fulfill technological, sensory and physiological functions in order to avoid long lists of ingredients.

  • Proteins

    Proteins not only fulfill vital functions in the human body, but their functionality is essential for the fibrous structure of our products. Due to the shearing and thermal treatment during the extrusion process, the proteins arrange themselves in meat-fibre-like structures and solidify, as we are familiar with from protein solidification.

  • Pea protein

    Currently, we mainly use the protein of the yellow pea – pisum sativum, which contributes to a healthy diet through its complete amino acid profile. Legumes, which include peas, can bind with nitrogen in the soil in symbiosis with soil bacteria and therefore generally manage without additional nitrogen fertilisers.

  • Sunflower protein

    The sunflower protein in our planted.pulled helps to form long fibre structures, creates a subtle nutty taste and gives a darker colour. We also give a second life to the press cake from the sunflower oil production.

  • Oat protein

    Oat protein complements the amino acid profile of pea protein with sufficient levels of methionine and cysteine and is therefore an ideal addition to our product portfolio.

    Diversity is not only important for our food, but also for agriculture. Therefore, we rely on various plant-based raw material sources today and in the future.
