What are

Alternative Proteins?

Alternative proteins are proteins produced from plants, microbes, or cultivated animal cells. These innovative foods are designed to taste the same as or better than conventional animal products, while costing the same or less.

Firstly, we can make plant-based meat (PBM) by combining plant-based proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. These products can deliver the tastes and flavours consumers expect from the animal meat they know and love.

Secondly, we can create cultivated meat (CM), which involves directly harvesting cells from farmed animals and growing them in bioreactors similar to those used to brew beer. The cells undergo similar biological processes to what occurs in an animal, allowing us to grow genuine animal tissue in a safer and more secure way. 

Lastly, we can produce fermentation-derived (FD) proteins. Precision fermentation allows us to create standalone functional ingredients by engineering microorganisms to express specific proteins or fats. Similarly, biomass fermentation allows us to leverage the exponential growth of microbes to create delicious, animal-free meats.
