Turning wasted fruit pits/seeds into innovative ingredients for the food and beverage industry.
Info
Kern Tec is an Austria based upcycling and food tech company. With tech- and supply chain innovation Kern Tec is able to turn industrial byproducts into high value ingredients for the food & beverage industry but also for cosmetic and industrial applications. Kern Tec is committed to bring unique plant based ingredients and products to the global food market created from pits from apricots, cherries and plums. These raw materials were previously seen as a side product in the global production, but with Kern Tec's technologies they can be processed into tasty, sustainable, nutritious and safe products like food & cosmetic oils, protein powders, "nut" spreads and even dairy alternatives. The seeds can be called as the most sustainable nuts that ever existed with plenty of applications and opportunities to come. With a team of 40+ Kern Tec has been able to successfully upcycle over 1.000.000 kg of fruit pits and is heavily investing in scaling the processes and bringing the technologies to whole Europe and beyond. But this is just the beginning.

Did you know that 1/3 of all food produced globally goes to waste? Even more is lost via wasted side streams within food production processes. At Kern Tec we have created a way to turn stone fruit pits from those forgotten side streams into innovative plant-based food products - to make their tasty & sustainable potential accessible. 🌱🌎 Want to learn more about our mission and how we're making a difference?

Kern Tec x Sustainable Foods Summit 2024 🌎 Last week Florian Schmied participated at Ecovia Intelligence "Sustainable Foods Summit 2024" in Amsterdam and spoke about how Kern Tec reduces the incredible amount of food waste and connected emissions by transforming stone fruit kernels into sustainable food ingredients. 🌱 "My personal view from the summit: there are many bright ideas, smart technology and a lot of passion to make the food industry more sustainable. So let us get started!" #kerntec #EuropeanSustainableFoodsSummit #SFSEU24 #sustainablefoodingredients #upcycling #reducefoodwaste #zerowaste #plantbased
It was my pleasure speaking at Ecovia Intelligence "Sustainable Foods Summit 2024" in Amsterdam last week. I also got the chance to participate in the panel discussion on "Sustainability Merits of New Technologies" to share our Kern Tec-approach of activating existing resources. We are convinced that upcycling is the way to reduce the incredible amount of food-waste and connected emissions. By saving kernels that are a sidestream of fruit industry we create sustainable innovative raw-materials at zero waste. Our tasty fruitseed-pastes are used in plant-based dairy, confectionery, bakery and many more applications reducing water (-97%!), CO2 and landuse substantially. Thanks to Olwyn FitzGerald from Ecovia Intelligence for the opportunity, and for the interesting insights from my co-panellists Jeroen Hugenholtz, NOPALM INGREDIENTS/ Emma Teuling, NIZO/ Ruud (Rudolf) Overbeek, FOODCHAIN ID. My personal view from the summit: there are many bright ideas, smart technology and a lot of passion to make the food industry more sustainable. So let us get started! #Sustainability #EuropeanSustainableFoodSummit #SFSEU24 #sustainablefoods #foodingredients #sustainablefoodingredients #upcycling #reducefoodwaste #zerowaste #plantbased #plantbasedinnovation #nondairy #savingkernels Foto: Tom Baas
