Plant-based

"Across our application centers our R&D teams support in the development of the meat analoque formulation that delivers from nutritional, organoleptic and technical perspective." 

Whether you’re catering to the demand for vegetarian food or looking for a clean label solution, our comprehensive portfolio of premium ingredients supported by our experienced food technologists will enable you to develop the formulation that will hit the consumers’ sweet spot.

Personal health and the health of our planet are increasingly driving consumers to adopt plant-based food items. And while consumers maintain their expectations from nutritional and organoleptic perspective, this raises technical challenges. The development of meat analogues for instance often results in functional challenges to mimic flavor, mouthfeel and texture of real meat. Across our global network of application centers our R&D teams can provide technical support with the formulation and development and advise on production processes, while they capitalize on our comprehensive portfolio of animal-free ingredients.

Whether you’re launching a plant-based mayonnaise or mouth-watering meringues, or simply a juicy more sustainable meet-free steak or chicken bites, our technical experts welcome you in our application laboratories to innovate and co-create the plant-based formulation that encourages consumers to buy again and again.
