Demand for non-meat proteins is growing rapidly in the U.S. where nearly half of consumers seek out plant-based products online or in the supermarket. On a global basis, survey respondents expressed a desire to try plant-based versions of traditional, local cuisines.
The alterative food industry is projected to surge to $7.1 billion by 2025. AlPower can help meet this demand with label-friendly products featuring enhanced flavor and texture at affordable prices. Large corporate players want to develop the next generation of alternative-protein products with new sources of high-value protein. Soybean and pea proteins are among the leading suppliers of alternative protein. However, soybean protein is associated with allergic reactions and side effects caused by the presence of estrogen-like compounds. Pea protein has a strong off-taste.
New and established seafood companies are acknowledging increased consumer demand for healthy ocean ecosystems and sustainable seafood alternatives. AlPower’s novel plant-based protein can help create eco-friendly seafood with more ocean-friendly seafood options. Additional reasons include consumer perception of health (avoiding allergens, inflammation triggering compounds, inhibitors, and heavy metals), sustainability, opportunity for innovation, and dramatic increase in seafood consumption due to flexitarian diet. Development of a novel alternative protein is highly desirable.
Toward that goal, we have developed a novel plant-based protein for alternative meat and seafood products. AlPower’s process generates large quantities of algal biomass that contains > 40% of high-quality protein.
Our protein source combines the most desirable characteristics for our customers:
balanced protein and extra health benefits warding off cardio-vascular diseases
and obesity that promote a healthy existence.
Most of all, our protein is completely vegan with outstanding amino acid balance, great digestibility, and no allergens, toxins, or heavy metals.
AlPower’s alternative protein is an excellent choice!
We can offer alternative, plant-based protein manufacturers:
- Purity and Quality: A very clean source of non-animal protein free of heavy metals, allergens, and other contaminants. Great amino acid balance and digestibility define high quality protein food ingredient. Additional health benefits include helping prevent allergies, cardio-vascular diseases and extend healthy lifespan.
- Green Sustainability: AlPower’s novel process is green and sustainable as it utilizes cheap inputs – sunlight and water, sequesters carbon dioxide and generates oxygen for our planet. AlPower technology has no dependence on arable land or unstable prices of electricity and natural gas.
- Stable supply: Our process for growing biomass is independent of year-to-year yield variations, as is common with soybean or the pea protein yields. Our biomass is grown in bioreactors under controlled conditions, so high batch-to-batch reproducibility is guaranteed. Thus, our partners can enjoy uninterrupted, guaranteed supplies of protein thanks to AlPower’s technology. Also, our U. S. location means we avoid global supply chain issues.
- Scalability: We can scale up as much as you need. Our technology has high scalability right here in the United States.
- Competitive advantage: AlPower has plant biomass of GRAS grade with protein concentrations above 40 percent that is comparable to beef. It is also gluten-free. Our partners can use just ONE source to achieve industry standards. Expand your product portfolio with alternative proteins and healthy nutrients from AlPower.
Creating the products our partners and customers desire is our first priority. High-quality proteins can be tailored to desired specifications of alternative meat and seafood customers who will be guiding/participating in the development process.
