What Is ProSeed’s Mission?
ProSeed is all about transforming the food system to be more resilient and sustainable. The focus? Reducing the negative impact of food production by preserving wet biomass from Food & Beverage (F&B) producers. Climate change is a massive challenge, and a big part of it comes down to how resources are produced and used on a large scale. ProSeed steps in to change that narrative by turning what was once waste into valuable resources.
The Main Benefit: Unlocking Value from Wet Biomass
Here’s the deal: every year in Europe, around 18 million tons of wet biomass goes unused as food. This includes Brewers Spent Grains from beer production, press cake from juice making, and okara from tofu manufacturing. ProSeed offers a cost-effective preservation solution that helps F&B producers capture more value from this biomass. The benefits? Check these out:
- 18,000,000 tons of wet biomass annually unused in Europe
- New revenue streams for beverage producers
- Improved ESG compliance for companies
- Energy-efficient and fast drying technology
- Maintained product quality and food safety
Innovative Drying Technology Tailored for Food Applications
ProSeed’s specialized drying system is designed specifically to handle bulk wet biomass for food use. It’s not just about drying fast—it’s about doing it efficiently, saving energy, and keeping the product safe and high-quality. This technology fits perfectly into existing production lines, making it a seamless upgrade for producers looking to reduce waste and boost sustainability.
Material Screening and Scale-Up Flexibility
One of the coolest things about ProSeed’s approach is its versatility. The system can work with a wide range of wet by-products, depending on what customers need. After proving the technology’s feasibility, there’s a smooth path to scaling up through contract manufacturing and machines sized just right for different production volumes. It’s all about adapting to what the market demands.
Supporting Application Development for New Raw Materials
Working with new raw materials can be tricky, but ProSeed’s experience and extensive partner network make the process faster and easier. They help fast-track the development of various food products, turning potential challenges into opportunities. This support is crucial for companies exploring innovative uses for their biomass.
