SUPPORTING THE GROWTH OF THE PLANT-BASED FOOD INDUSTRY WITH NUTRITIONAL AND FLAVORFUL INGREDIENTS

Lallemand Bio-Ingredients is committed to advancing the plant-based food sector by providing high-quality, nutritionally valuable solutions tailored to the needs of modern consumers and food manufacturers.

One of our flagship offerings is Engevita® HiPRO Beyond, a yeast-based alternative protein ingredient that delivers over 80% protein in a highly digestible form. Naturally rich in essential amino acids, it supports the development of products that meet high nutritional standards without the need for animal-derived ingredients. Engevita® HiPRO Beyond is non-functional, making it easy to incorporate into formulations without altering texture — ideal for applications where protein enrichment is the primary goal.

In addition to protein solutions, Lallemand offers a versatile range of yeast extracts and natural flavors designed to refine the taste profile of plant-based foods. These ingredients can help deliver specific savory directions — such as chicken- or cheese-like notes — or act as effective flavor maskers, neutralizing the undesirable off-notes that are often associated with certain plant proteins.

By combining nutritional excellence with flavor optimization, Lallemand Bio-Ingredients supports food innovators in creating plant-based products that are not only healthy and sustainable, but also delicious and consumer-friendly.
