What is solein?
The new era of protein is here.
Solein originates from a natural, non-modified, single-cell organism. It is completely natural, even though it is not grown traditionally. Solein is a nutrient-rich ingredient with minimal environmental impact, setting a new standard for nutritional protein.
NATURE’S OWN HARVEST
Neither a plant nor an animal
It’s not a carrot nor a cow. It’s not a GMO or artificial. Solein is composed of an unmodified, single-cell microbial organism – one of the billion different ones in the nature – discovered in the Nordic wilderness. Having existed longer than any of our other foods, it is as natural as crops or farming animals.
FOLLOWING NATURE’s playbook
Process designed by nature
Our process follows nature’s playbook, it just does it more efficiently. Solein’s production doesn’t depend on farmland, weather, or seasons. It can be produced almost anywhere – using only a fraction of the land and time compared to traditional farming.
Solein is made through a gentle fermentation process, a bit like brewing beer. Just like plants, Solein needs CO2, nutrients, and energy to grow. But instead of sunlight, it takes its energy from hydrogen gas.
A radical impact on the future of food
Solein offers endless possibilities for the food industry and the nutritious, tasty and sustainable foods of tomorrow.
Sustainable and ethical
Solein’s production is completely independent of land use, large-scale water use, weather and climate conditions, making it the most sustainable protein in the world. It avoids all the ethical dilemmas of agriculture from distructive land use to animal suffering. There’s no slaughter of animals, cleared forests, pesticides, or fertiliser runoffs.
Secure supply
Solein is food that will never run out. It can be grown anywhere in the world, every day of the year, and the production cycle is just 70 hours. Solein provides a secure supply of protein, addressing the global protein supply gap.
Steady quality
Solein is produced through gas fermentation, a groundbreaking production method where the agriculture happens on a cellular level. The continuous production process is carefully monitored which guarantees consistent quality – and the food will never run out.
Steady price
Solein can be produced every day throughout the year without interruptions. The price is not subject to sudden spikes and market disruptions from disease outbreaks to climate conditions.
no compromise on taste
Revolutionising food, not eating
Solein is the most sustainable protein in the world, capable of addressing the global food crisis without burdening out planet – with no compromise on taste or functionality. Solein is a nutritious ingredient that blends in, works hard, and never shouts. It elevates without changing what people already love. Consumers can continue enjoying their favourites, while Solein transforms the impact behind them.
