The Ingredient-Tech Platform behind Future Food

Innovation, sustainability, taste and nutrition: the Ingredient-Tech Platform’s key focuses to enhance human well-being and planet health.

In today’s ever-evolving food industry, the demand for high-quality, sustainable and affordable ingredients has never been greater. In this context, our Ingredient-Tech Platform was created to build synergistic relationships between nature and technology, tradition and innovation, craftsmanship and science, taste and health, as well as between suppliers and customers. The overarching ambition is to form a widespread and interrelated ecosystem that continuously advances ingredients and contributes to making the food industry more sustainable.

 

As explained by Enrica Satta, Chief HR Officer and Sustainability at CSM Collective: “We are driven by a focus on sustainability and our commitment to becoming net positive. It is the inspiration behind our “Thrive for Impact” strategy, which is closely aligned with the UN SDGs and concentrates on human well-being, planet health, and ingredient wealth as the three cornerstones of the way we carry out every-day business.”

 

To meet global food demands, increase the sustainability of the whole value chain and act as change drivers, our Ingredient-Tech Platform leverages innovation and technology to find new ways to use the planet’s resources and positively impact consumer diets. Through our unique open innovation framework, we focus on developing added-value fats and oils, proteins, carbohydrates and functional ingredients. By combining these cutting-edge ingredients with an extensive portfolio of more traditional products and specialized craftmanship, we aim to position ourselves as a reliable partner for companies looking to develop tastier, more nutritious and sustainable foods and drinks, able not only to increase consumers’ well-being but also to deliver great moments of joy.

 

In short, by leveraging our rich legacy of expertise, significant cross-business synergies, and a forward-thinking approach to innovation, our Ingredient-Tech Platform aims to pave the way for a new era of taste and nutrition, prioritizing human well-being and planet health.
