Our goal is to save as much unused bread as possible. We want to create new solutions to save it from being thrown in the rubbish. So that stale bread is transformed from waste to a raw material that can be reused, saving resources, energy and the environment.

More about our circular products

CHANGE YOUR MIND:
Think "RAW", not "WASTE"

The majority of the market treats stale bread as waste. Meanwhile, it is a wholesome raw material. It has only undergone a physical change that excludes it from being an attractive product for the consumer. After appropriate processing (e.g. crushing), waste bread becomes useful for many innovative industrial processes.

What can we make from stale bread?

new breads and tasty snacks

probiotic drinks and breadbucha

umami seasoning and meat substitutes

vegan cosmetics

kraft spirits

biodegradable packaging and biofilament for 3D printing

Why is what we do so important?

The problem of bread wastage is a global and complex issue, and solving it will benefit the economy, the environment and the quality of life standards of many communities.
