A backbone for the world’s most fragile commodities.
We supply a growing portfolio of food ingredient alternatives for climate-threatened and highly regulated raw materials. Under one technology platform.
We turn locally available crops into a growing portfolio of ingredients for food manufacturers – powered by one scalable fermentation platform.
Designed to reduce dependence on fragile supply chains.
Why now?
The world’s most loved ingredients grow in fewer places, under more pressure.
Disasters wipe out an estimated $123 billion of crop and livestock production every year.Source: FAO, The Impact of Disasters on Agriculture and Food Security, 2023
When supply depends on a few regions, prices can multiply within months. The next shock is a question of when, not if.Source: World Bank Commodity Price Data (Pink Sheet)From 30 December 2026, large and medium-sized companies must prove that cocoa and coffee placed on the EU market are traceable to deforestation-free land.Source: EU Deforestation Regulation (EU) 2023/1115, as amended by Regulation (EU) 2025/2650

Less deforestation risk
Regional raw materials instead of deforestation-risk commodities – less due diligence in your supply chain.
LCA calculation by inoqo / Planet A Foods. Scope covered: agriculture and raw materials, processing, and transport to the factory.
ChoViva milk recipe (2.81 kg CO₂e/kg) is compared against an estimated benchmark value for conventional milk chocolate in Germany (10.64 kg CO₂e/kg), based on a representative benchmark cluster (37% cocoa content).

The CO₂e saving is achieved purely physically through the recipe and does not include any carbon offset certificates.
Our fermentation platform turns everyday crops into ingredients that perform like the originals – at industrial scale.
01Input
Resilient raw materials
Locally available crops such as sunflower seeds, grown in climate-stable regions.
02Transformation
Process technology
Our proprietary fermentation platform builds the taste and function of the original ingredient.
03Supply
Independent supply chain
Sourced and produced locally – a resilient supply chain, with volumes and prices you can plan long-term.
04Output
Plug & play applications
Runs on your existing production lines with no retooling – as a coating, filling or inclusion.
10+Patent families
30+Scientists & engineers
From lab to lineProven at industrial scale
Portfolio
One platform. A growing portfolio.
Key crops like cocoa and coffee are under pressure from climate change, deforestation rules and volatile supply.Our ingredient solutions reduce your exposure to these risks.
Proven in industrial settings – from supply chain to process.
Seamless integration
Natural ingredients that fit your existing recipes and lines – no retooling, no risk to your brand.
Stable prices, better value
Prices that hold for years, regardless of volume – no hedging, predictable P&Ls. And compared with similar solutions, you get more functionality for the same cost.
