Project description
Food waste upcycling with sustainable solutions
In a world grappling with the urgent need for sustainable practices, food waste remains a critical global challenge. With this in mind, the EU-funded AgroGrIN Tech project will transform this wasteful predicament into an opportunity for sustainable food production. Spearheaded by Molecule Message Unipessoal, a leading food waste upcycling company, AgroGrIN Tech harnesses the power of green chemistry to extract concentrated extracts of natural enzymes and vitamins. This innovative technology not only produces sustainable and clean label ingredients but also repurposes the remaining fraction into naturally gluten-free flours and natural flavouring powders. With a strong focus on innovation and technology transfer, AgroGrIN Tech promises to revolutionise the food industry while promoting sustainability in every bite.
Objective
Molecule Message Unipessoal is a food waste upcycling company, that produces sustainable and clean label ingredients, through a patent technology that uses green chemistry that enables to isolate of concentrated extracts of natural enzymes and vitamins, still reusing the remaining fraction into the production of naturally gluten-free flours and natural flavouring powders. The main activities are related to innovation and technology transfer to the market of technology and innovation, coming from fundamental research associated with the food industry and sustainability area.
