Meat-native functional proteins

The proteins
that make
meat work.

Animal-identical proteins, made through fermentation. Designed to give food producers more control over texture, juiciness and yield.

Explore the functionality

Building the future of meat functionality.

A close study of the structure and juicy texture of sliced cooked beef.

It starts with
what proteins do.

In meat, structural proteins bind ingredients, hold water and stabilise fat. Ingrediome is bringing those functions into a new generation of food ingredients.

01 /

Structure
& bite.

Build cohesive texture through binding and heat-set gelation.

BINDING + GELATION
02 /

Juiciness
that holds.

Retain moisture through cooking to support a juicy bite and product yield.

WATER HOLDING + YIELD
03 /

Consistency
throughout.

Keep fat and water together for a uniform texture.

EMULSIFICATION
Food performance, built into the ingredient.How we make it

Inspired by meat.
Made by fermentation.

We start with the proteins behind meat’s functionality. Precision fermentation gives us a new way to produce them as food ingredients.

  1. 01

    Protein

    Select a protein for the function it brings to food.

  2. 02

    Microorganism

    Give microorganisms the blueprint to make that protein.

  3. 03

    Fermentation

    Grow the microorganisms in a controlled fermentation process.

  4. 04

    Functional ingredient

    Recover the protein as an ingredient for food formulation.

Animal-identical proteins. A different way to make them.

From functional protein to food.

More control.
More possibilities.

Texture, consistency, yield and formulation cost. The everyday challenges of food production are where our proteins are designed to make a difference.
