Mission and technology
To understand better the power of precision fermentation and how it can change our world for the better read our white paper. Download here:
Thanks to nutritional yeasts and precision fermentation, we are able to sustainably produce milk proteins. This way our partners from the food industry can turn them into dairy products that taste good and respect our environment.
Today, we produce milk proteins but in the long term we can imagine producing all types of proteins with fermentation. It means that we could continue to produce lots of good products without having to use our planet's precious resources.

"How to produce milk without cow?"
Precision fermentation has been used for decades to produce products , whether pharmaceutical (insulin, vitamins, etc.) or food (rennet for cheese or vanillin for making cakes).
We are now able to apply this technology to milk proteins to recreate dairy products similar in all respects to animal-based dairy products.
01.
We combine cow DNA with nutritional yeast.
02.
We give water, sugar and nutrients to our yeast.
03.
We recover the milk proteins produced by our yeast.
04.
We partner with our clients from the food industry to help them recreate the dairy products we love using our animal-free proteins.
To quantify the impact of our technology compared with conventional dairy production, we asked independent experts to carry out a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of our entire process. The results are very promising, with:
- a 97% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions,
- a 99% reduction in drinking water consumption
- and land use cut by 92%!
By combining our cutting-edge technology with French dairy know-how, it's possible to produce all the dairy products we love without impacting the environment or the animals!
Science at the service of your taste buds and the environment!
