Real meat protein is harvested using precision fermentation in bacteria/yeasts, these protein can then be crosslinked with plant-based protein to create the meaty texture.
About
● The main problem of plant-based meat is that these ‘mock meats’ have suboptimal texture, taste and nutrition values. A plant-based meat does not generally taste like real meat. ● Meanwhile the challenges facing cultured meat are cost, scaffolding and scalabilities. Put simply, cultured meat is promising but incredibly expensive, where as fermented protein solutions like FW’s will create cheap and rapidly reproducible animal proteins. Fybraworks is the world’s first company to develop precision-fermentation based meat protein ingredient to deliver products that are lower cost, better taste and better nutrition than existing technologies. FW is a B2B platform company, which will sell its proprietary lab-made animal proteins to downstream food manufacturers, pet-food companies, restaurant chains and B2C mock-meat companies. The FW family of products will be affordable and tasty alternatives to traditional farm-grown meat by combining natural texture of fungi and texture as well as nutrition from tailored muscle proteins.
Key Benefits
Replacing the hydrocolloids based additives with our natural fermentation based 100% protein texurant will result in a meat alternatives that have cleaner label, better nutrition, better texture and taste.
Applications
These precision-fermentation based meat protein can be applied in most of the plant based meat alternatives as well as fermentation based meat alternatives. Examples include pizza toppings, nuggets, tenders, and even whole-cut type of products.
