Food development – from concept to climate-smart product

Developing the food of the future is complex – products must be climate-smart and nutritious, while also being accepted by consumers and produced profitably. The shift towards plant-based protein alternatives requires processes that deliver the right texture and taste, while ensuring cost-effectiveness and scalability. At the same time, tools are needed to enable companies to measure and communicate sustainability in a credible way.

RISE supports the food industry throughout the entire journey from idea to market. In our pilot plant, new products for plant-based foods and the utilisation of side streams are developed and tested in a food-approved environment. Product design combines materials science, sensory science and aroma analysis to create foods with the right taste, texture and nutritional value.
Fermentation is used to improve properties and convert residual products into new ingredients. The climate database with life cycle analyses of over 800 foods enables climate reporting and climate-smart choices. Consumer research ensures that new products are accepted, and business development support helps companies navigate the innovation process.
