As ingredient manufacturers increasingly focus on natural, sustainable, and highly effective functional ingredients, the upcycling approach stands out as a perfect fit. Upcycling involves repurposing food waste to create high-value food products, which helps reduce costs, enhance food security, and decrease reliance on artificial raw materials.
EDGE Ingredients is a prime example of the innovation in this space, with the use of plant biomass waste, they create cutting-edge clean-label ingredients like their 'FiberColloid' and their methylcellulose replacer that improve the texture and performance of foods.
Similarly, Netherlands-based Gourmet Ingredients transforms produce deemed unfit for sale by agricultural company Gourmet into valuable functional ingredients. This range includes oils, purees, powders, and concentrates that improve the taste, texture, colour, and sweetness of food products.
While upcycling is undeniably beneficial for the industry, it's understandable that some consumers might initially be hesitant about products derived from food waste. However, if these upcycled products deliver excellent taste and quality, there's no reason for concern.
? Would be keen to hear everyone else's thoughts on this?
