Arbiom, an agricultural-biotech company developing solutions to deliver next-generation protein ingredients, announced the kick-off of SYLPLANT project.
This European collaborative project gathers 17 partners covering the entire food and feed value chains from feedstock manufacturers to retailers.
It is co-funded by the Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking (CBE JU), a public-private partnership between the European Commission and the Bio-based Industries Consortium. SYLPLANT is built on the success of Sylfeed, a 4-year project funded by the Bio-Based Industries Joint Undertaking (predecessor of CBE JU) where Arbiom successfully scaled-up its technology and validated the performance of its flagship ingredient. “This factory paves the way to Arbiom’s industrial deployment. It will bring 10.000 tons/year of alternative, highly nutritional and sustainable protein to the market to answer the future food needs,” said Marc Chevrel, CEO of Arbiom.
This project’s importance at both France and European levels is underscored by the France Relance funding obtained in 2022, and now the EUR14m CBE JU grant for the next three years.
Through SYLPLANT, Arbiom brings together European experts of the entire value chain from feedstocks manufacturers to retailers to build the future of food. “We are convinced that collaborating with strong market partners of the feed and food sectors will enable to accelerate the development of next generation ingredients,” according to Amélie Droualt, VP of business development for Arbiom.
