Cargill, Renmatix Explore New Technology to Make Label-Friendly, Functional Food Ingredients
Joint development agreement will focus on developing food ingredients from unused plant materials
Food and beverage manufacturers looking to meet consumer demand for great-tasting, label-friendly ingredients may have new options in the near future. Cargill and Renmatix have signed a joint development agreement (JDA) to explore a novel approach for making functional food ingredients from unused plant materials.
"Renmatix's Plantrose® Process, which uses only water, heat and pressure, supports our commitment to help customers deliver food and beverage products that are label-friendly, sustainable and cost-effective," said Bruce McGoogan, Cargill strategy and business development leader. "The fact that this simple process can economically and efficiently deconstruct plant materials and convert them into functional food ingredients is a solution we're excited to explore in order to help us feed the world."
