30 Jul 2020 --- Microalgae-based proteins are the cornerstone of Unilever’s new partnership with biotech start-up Algenuity to “innovate future foods” for Unilever’s plant-based portfolio. UK-based Algenuity specializes in a chemical-free method of removing bitter notes from microalgae, within its alternative protein platform Chlorella Colours, for use in F&B products. The company will work with the R&D team within Unilever’s Foods and Refreshment (F&R) division to explore marketable potential across diverse categories including pasta, bakery, beverages and confectionery.
