UpGrain is a Swiss company that upcycles side streams from breweries—specifically barley from the brewing process—into protein- and fiber-rich ingredients. Their Swiss-made product range includes UpGrain Protein, UpGrain Classic, UpGrain TVP (textured vegetable protein), and UpGrain Flakes, marketed for applications in baked goods, meat substitutes, pasta, and snacks. They emphasize sustainability, circular economy principles, and claim their mechanical separation and drying process yields ingredients with up to 90% lower environmental impact than conventional protein sources like soy or pea. Products are kosher & halal certified, non-GMO, and positioned as low-CO2 alternatives.
