Projectdetails

Introduction

Green Spot Technologies has developed an innovative solid-state fermentation (SSF) process that converts large amounts of fruit and vegetable side-streams from the food processing industry into high value-added ingredients.

Nutritional Benefits

These ingredients are:

  • High in dietary fibre and complete protein
  • Low in fat and sugar
  • Free from gluten, lactose, and GMOs
  • Rich in vitamins, essential minerals, fatty acids, and beta-glucan prebiotics

Unique Process

Crucially, ours is the first SSF process that allows for cost-effective upscaling and automation.

Development Progress

In the past 4 years, GST has developed this technology up to TRL 6. We were able to scale up our production of different flours up to dozens of kg/week, which allowed real consumer trials during the seed fund period.

Market Interest

Our value proposition has raised the interest of several large food manufacturing companies, such as Nestlé.

Project Alignment

GST’s Fl'Our Planet project supports the EU’s Green Deal goal of accelerating the transition to a sustainable food system (Farm 2 Fork strategy).
