Our mycoprotein is a highly nutritious and sustainable source of protein. It benefits both our health and the environment. Part of the fungi family and derived from a type of filamentous fungi called Fusarium venenatum, mycoprotein is a complete protein that contains all the essential amino acids your body needs.
We believe mycoprotein is also a better choice than traditional plant-based proteins like soy and pea. Not only does the Carbon Trust rate us as better in terms of land, water and greenhouse gases, mycoprotein has a higher protein quality score, and is also high in fibre. Unlike pea and soy-based meat alternatives, our mycoprotein is created through the traditional and ancient art of fermentation. Mycoprotein is cultivated in large 40-metre-high fermenters, here at Marlow Ingredients we are literally growing high quality protein in the sky.
Together, we can make tasty food which is healthy for us and healthy for the planet and create a brighter future for generations to come.
