Home / News & Insights / How to Scale Your Alt Protein Startup from Benchtop to Production
美国本质上是一个食肉动物的国家,肉类消费受到打击 264 pounds per person in 2020. 但美国人也越来越意识到肉类消费对他们的健康和环境的影响.
A 2020 poll conducted by Gallup 发现近四分之一的美国人报告说他们在过去一年中吃肉少了, 90%的人说他们这样做是出于健康考虑,70%的人说是出于环境考虑, including greenhouse gas emissions and environmental pollution.
As people gradually change their eating habits, 他们正在寻找更健康、对环境更好、但仍然美味、负担得起的蛋白质替代品. Enter plant-based meats. 供应链的中断和价格竞争促使那些对这些食品好奇的人尝试一下. In fact, sales of plant-based meats grew to more than $1 billion in 2021, led by both large producers and smaller startups, and are expected to reach $14.9 billion by 2027.
“You always see Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods in the headlines, while they have been leading the industry, there are hundreds of other companies producing great products with a similar mission,” said Matt Williams, Regional Director in 澳门足彩app’s Livermore, California, office.
澳门足彩app began working in the plant-based foods industry in 2015, 与一个机密的植物蛋白客户合作,从台式生产扩大到全面的商业生产设施. While plant-based proteins are a substitute for animal proteins, 植物性食品的生产设施比肉类加工厂更类似于其他食品生产设施.
“They look and feel just like other food manufacturing facilities; they’re just using different ingredients,” Williams said. “We handle everything from the process engineering, Clean-in-Place (CIP) design, packaging engineering, automation and controls, building construction, 所有公用事业基础设施和项目管理交付这些设施交钥匙. Even going from benchtop to commercial scale.”
Beyond Meat的成功IPO刺激了农业综合企业进入替代蛋白领域. Traditional meat producers such as Smithfield, Perdue, and Tyson are staking their claims in this market, and conglomerates like Archer-Daniels-Midland and Cargill, 哪些公司拥有基础设施和规模,可以生产更便宜的产品,并迅速推向市场, are putting business pressure on the many startups.
“在一些以植物为基础的公司,产品是由科学家开发的,他们知道R&D(研究和开发)和产品,但并不总是如何以商业上可行的规模生产,” Williams said. “很难找到像澳门足彩app这样在扩大生产规模方面有经验的公司,这可能是一条陌生的道路. That's where we want to help. 澳门足彩app提供了一个路线图,帮助它们完成从创业到商业化生产的过渡, name-brand product.”
澳门足彩app非常擅长在产品还在R语言中时为客户提供项目支持&D. Often, 设施设计正在顺利进行,设备正在选择,而研究人员仍在调整他们的产品. At times, 根据R后产品的最终形态,需要对设备或设施进行修改&D is complete. Running a product at scale comes with its own challenges, 因为产品在大批量生产中可能表现得与在试验批量生产中不同. 这是一个了解从R扩展的挑战、风险和陷阱的设计师&D becomes invaluable.
“Startups have quite a few challenges, but that's what makes it fun. We really like to be a part of helping companies grow,” Williams said. “We enjoy applying our learnings from past projects, and we love to have overcome challenges working together. We always see ourselves as an extension of our client’s team, helping them through the entire process.”
随着消费者对替代蛋白的兴趣增加,以及生产商对外观的改进,替代蛋白行业预计将继续增长, taste, and texture of plant-based foods, and supply chains respond in parallel. Additionally, 围绕3D打印的创新技术正在被开发,在这种技术中,食物被挤压和压印,使其具有纤维的外观和质地, with the goal of making the products familiar to consumers to enjoy it.
“Replacing meat with a plant-based diet has a cumulative impact, even if it’s only one or two meals a week,” Williams said. “所有这些加起来可以抵消饲养和加工牲畜对环境的影响. We have abundant farmland to grow these plant-based proteins, 澳门足彩app有很多人支持植物性食品的使命,并对这些项目的挑战感兴趣.”
