The facility employs clean-label oilseed processing technology to operate as the world’s first agro-industrial plant with an end-to-end hydrocarbon-free extraction process from raw bean to finished ingredient.
If approved, the ingredient would provide manufacturers with another source of vibrant yellow color derived from an edible plant rather than petroleum-based synthetic colorants.
The partnership will see the technology deployed at Crespel & Deiters’ facility in Helmond, the Netherlands, to produce high-quality textured vegetable proteins (TVP) from European-grown pulses such as fava beans and peas.
The new additions to ADM’s ProFam and Arcon portfolios span soy protein isolates, concentrates, and pea-based ingredients, designed for applications including beverages, dairy alternatives, meat products, bakery products, and plant-based foods.
The new facility includes an application laboratory designed for concept innovation, formulation support, stability testing, and customer training workshops, enabling closer collaboration and faster, locally tailored solutions for product development.
