Working together for the future of food
At Dinnissen, we are proud to collaborate with companies that lead the way in innovation and bring positive change to the food industry. One such company is Nutreco.
Nutreco is a global company with more than 11,000 employees, focused on going beyond nutrition and into sustainable protein production: both in feed and food, both of animal and non-animal origin. They support producers of healthy proteins, both through traditional farming and innovative methods like cell feed for cell-cultured protein. Nutreco sees a role for both traditional farming and cultivated protein, where existing agricultural practices can contribute to the development of cell feeds. By providing scientifically proven solutions, Nutreco helps farmers create a more efficient and sustainable food system. With “feeding the future” as their purpose, Nutreco is dedicated to building a future-proof food system that focuses on health, sustainability, and efficiency. Mr. Wijma, Manager Operations & Process Innovation at Nutreco, explains how Dinnissen’s production line contributes to the development of cell feeds at Nutreco.

Nutreco: from traditional animal feed to cell feeds
“We provide innovative feed solutions that help animals grow in a healthy way. In addition to our traditional feed solutions, we are focusing on producing nutrients for innovative proteins, such as cultivated protein. As pioneers, we develop scientifically proven solutions that support both the agricultural and alternative protein sectors.
Cultivated protein has the potential to be a sustainable alternative to traditional protein production. Cultivated protein is produced by growing animal cells in a bioreactor. This method requires a high-quality process to ensure the quality of the cultivated protein. When we started exploring the possibilities of cell feed for cultivated protein, we needed a partner who could adapt to the unique challenges of this industry. It is reassuring to work with a partner who has experience in this area.”
