New food
Meeting consumer demand for nutritious, sustainable and ethical food
The emerging ‘new foods’ sector is creating alternatives to traditional agriculture that can produce environmentally more sustainable, healthy, safe and affordable sources of nutrition for billions of people around the world. Potential types of new foods include insect-derived proteins, plant-based meat alternatives, cultivated meats, and cell-derived enzymes, proteins, fats and other nutrients and functional molecules.
GEA expertise for your new foods journey
Here at GEA we’re combining our industry, technology and engineering expertise to support our customers conceive, develop and scale-up sustainable and commercially viable processes for generating new foods. Whether you are an R&D organization, industry start-up, or an existing food processor diversifying into the new food sector, our technologies can help you to create and realise exciting, commercially viable opportunities. We believe our technologies can play an enabling role in the global drive to secure sustainably sourced and produced nutrition that will help to keep populations around the world healthy, while reducing stresses on our natural environments.
A global focus on safe, secure nutrition for all
At its foundation, new food embraces the basic principle and goal of feeding more people using fewer resources. One key focus is on reducing reliance on livestock-based agriculture, reducing waste, and reducing other stresses on the environment by harnessing new sources and production methods for generating plant-based dairy alternatives, alongside proteins, protein-rich foods, and other key nutrients.
Here are some examples of 'new food' types:
Precision fermentation
Protein nutrition, enzymes, sweeteners, fats, microbes, algae-based foods and nutrition, food ingredients.
Plant-based ingredients
Proteins from vegetables.
GEA expertise for the new food industry
Our customers in the alternative-protein space benefit from GEA’s expertise in just about every type of food and beverage process, from dairy to brewery. We also have parallel knowhow and experience in the pharma processing sector, which we can leverage alongside our broad fermentation and engineering expertise to support developments in the rapidly expanding field of precision fermentation and recombinant proteins.
Dedicated test centers of excellence
At the dedicated GEA New Food Application and Technology Center of Excellence (ATC), and other GEA technology test centers around the world our expertise can assist with process design and configuration, and scale up. We’ll sit down with you and take the time to understand your project and goals, and then work with you to create and test equipment, systems and potentially complete process lines for products as diverse as insect proteins, cell-based milk or recombinant enzymes.
Our expertise in fermentation extends beyond just physical bioreactors and equipment. We use the latest computational fluid dynamics-based digital tools and to help understand and predict cell behavior and yield under different bioreactor conditions, and provide engineering expertise for scale-up. We can help you optimize your process with a view to generating industrial processes for generating exciting, healthy and tasty new foods that can be accessible to populations around the world.
A focus on energy- and resource-efficient processes
Here at GEA we’re striving to develop components, systems and digital tools that can help our customers reduce energy and resource use, recycle, and reduce waste and carbon footprint. So we’ll always suggest options and upgrades that could help you to achieve your own sustainability goals, and secure reliable, robust and high quality processing, 24/7.
