Solar Foods

Solar Foods: Fermenta releases limited batch of Solein protein bars in the United States.

Solar Foods is taking a step towards the space business by collaborating with the European Space Agency (ESA) and OHB System AG.

The improvement achieved with Solar Foods' current production capacity has a limited impact on the company's potential revenue or margin, but for the industrial-scale Factory 02, the ability to prove the scalability of Solein production plays a critical role in the investment case.

An update to Solar Foods' Factory 02 operating model brings more concrete details to the evaluation communicated in connection with the company's H1 report regarding the possibilities to reduce the production plant's investment needs by relying more heavily on partner suppliers. We believe that the use of partner suppliers is justified from Solar Foods' perspective, as it reduces the capital requirement of the future production facility, which is currently the main pain point of the investment story.

Solar Foods' mayonnaise innovation is a concrete example of how Solein's unique product characteristics can create added value for customers. Innovations of this kind play a key role in strengthening customer interest in Solein.

With this notification, the company aims to receive a "no questions letter" from the agency, which is a stronger indication of the safety of Solein protein. The GRAS notification is a natural and expected continuation of Solein's commercialization strategy.
