At Paleo, we are rewriting the story of meat.

For ages, people have enjoyed the taste of meat. Yet, livestock farming has put immense pressure on our planet, its natural resources and animals.

 

While plant-based foods are more sustainable, their taste has not been up for the challenge so far. Here Paleo steps in.

 

Our ground-breaking alternative proteins are bio-identical to those found in animal meat. Identical in taste, look and nutrition. Only, we don’t use animals. Instead, we use yeast.

Same taste.

Different story.

 

Through a process of precision fermentation, Paleo delivers a sustainable animal protein that provides an authentic meat flavor, allowing the food industry to offer meat and fish alternatives that people love.

 

To grow our heme proteins, we don’t need to breed, transport or slaughter livestock. We are committed to end the immense loss of biodiversity. To cut back on land-, energy- and water use. And to make sure that we decrease mankind’s carbon footprint.
