EverGrain Ingredients, a barley fibre and protein ingredient supplier, introduced a range of ingredients at the Food ingredients trade show aimed to limit water use, emissions, and land use while enabling better nutrition and taste.
“People are talking, and what they’re saying is that they want plant-based options that taste better, are more nutritious, and that truly have a positive impact on the planet,” EverGrain’s CEO Greg Belt said. “This was the impetus for EverGrain where, through our ingredients, we have come up with solutions that can improve the taste, sustainability, and nutrition of beverages, bakery, and multiple other applications.”
The company hired Blonk Consultants to independently validate its claim that it can enable protein and fibre ingredients with materially lower greenhouse gas emissions, land use, and water use when compared to most other conventional ingredients.
“Pushing the food and beverage industry to a more sustainable future is a mission that we cannot achieve alone,” Hochreiter said. “Consumers have amplified the global conversation around food waste, and it’s time our industry did its part. EverGrain’s work in the sustainability arena is just getting started.”
