EverGrain Ingredients, a company which makes nutritional ingredients from upcycled barley backed by Anheuser Busch, will debut multiple new ingredients at Fi Europe, a hybrid event taking place both online and in person in Frankfurt, Germany. The company sets out to create a high benchmark to limit water and land use and cut back on emissions.
“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,” Greg Belt, CEO, 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.”
EverGrain has partnered with the Carbon Underground to support its “Adopt-a-Meter,” a regenerative agriculture initiative, and will fund the restoration of 1,000 square meters of land on behalf of the show’s attendees. Those walking the show can visit EverGrain’s booth to take a short survey on topics related to sustainability, and, in turn, EverGrain will restore one square meter for their time.
“It’s our responsibility to set the food industry on the most sustainable path forward, and this is one of many commitments that we’re making to contribute to the change that our planet so desperately needs,” Jaqueline Hochreiter, EverGrain’s global director of strategy and sustainability, said. “We are excited to expand our partnership with the Carbon Underground and other organizations fighting climate change in 2022 and beyond.”
With the Netherlands-based Blonk Consultants, EverGrain assessed and validated its assertion that it can enable protein and fiber ingredients with materially lower greenhouse gas emissions, land use, and water use compared to conventional ingredients. It will share the results of these findings with Fi Europe attendees.
This show will also be the company’s first major trade show appearance since its launch in January 2021, and will be located at booth 30K261. There will be samples available for fortified cookies and bread made with EverVita barley fiber and protein, and plant-based milk made with EverPro barley protein.
“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, and we encourage anyone wanting to join the movement to visit our booth.”
