With an estimated population of 8.5 billion of people by 2030, the world is facing the daunting challenge of meeting the growing demand for a sustainable production of food while improving its quality. The strong reliance on imports for protein consumption in Europe exemplifies this challenge and confirms the necessity to increase and develop European protein sovereignty with local alternatives.

As part of SYLPLANT, the consortium will work on the sequent objectives for the next three years:

• Constructing & operating Arbiom’s first plant in France to reach 10,000 ton per year of ingredient production.
• Validating the use of SylPro® in feed applications including aquafeed and petfood and gathering consumer insights.
• Developing the next generation of foods such as cheese analogs, meat-analogs, and specialized nutrition products with Arbiom’s ingredient.

The project gathers the entire food and feed value chain from feedstock manufacturers to retailers.
