The answers to better plant-based ingredients
are inside

Your customers aim to make plant-based foods and drinks that consumers love. To make sure your ingredients support that goal, you need to find answers to a range of complex questions. But in fact, the answers are inside the plants, waiting to be found. Best of all, you can find them with just one toolbox: biosolutions.

Find the answers inside with biosolutions

Enzymatic biosolutions unlock inherent flavor, texture and nutritional benefits across a range of plant-based ingredients. And as natural processing aids, they do it in a consumer-friendly way. Our biosolutions include enzymes for hydrolyzed soy protein and yeast extracts.

With biosolutions, the answers are inside.

The challenges

The plant-based market is a significant opportunity, but developing ingredients that give consumers everything they want can be a challenge. Turn the challenge into an opportunity with our biosolutions.

The answers to high protein are inside

The same enzymatic processes that help you get better flavors from plants can also boost protein levels. By targeting and breaking peptide bonds they can increase protein hydrolysis by up to 50%.

The answers to a better sensory experience are inside

Because hydrolyzed protein doesn’t affect viscosity as much as intact protein does, enzymatic hydrolysis makes it easier for your customers to achieve a great mouthfeel in plant-based beverages.
