Key benefits
Nutrition & Biosciences Protein Solutions are available as standard or ‘identity preserved non-genetically modified’ (IP non-GM) varieties.
Plant Based
Our soy protein ingredients are derived from a reliable and sustainable raw material—the soybean. Soy protein is the most widely used source of plant protein in the food industry and is among the most nutritious, versatile, economical and reliable sources of protein for food and beverage innovation.
Better Nutrition
Soy protein is a high-quality, plant-based protein with proven health benefits. Our soy protein solutions support the development of high-protein products from sports nutrition and weight management to general health & wellness, and help meet the protein needs of growing children, teens, pregnant and lactating women, health enthusiasts and active older individuals.
Soybean cultivation is highly efficient and producing soy protein requires far less land, energy and water than animal-based proteins. According to a third-party validated Life Cycle Assessment, our soybean isolate has a carbon footprint that’s up to 80 times lower than dairy and meat proteins.
Our soy protein solutions support at least six of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
