Eurosoy GmbH is a leading provider of soy products and other plant-based proteins, primarily catering to B2B customers. Our focus is on high-quality plant proteins that meet the demands of modern nutritional trends. Eurosoy GmbH emphasizes strong partnerships to deliver innovative solutions and further develop the market for plant-based proteins.

Over the past five years, the market for plant-based proteins in human nutrition has experienced dynamic growth. Driven by increasing awareness of health, environmental sustainability, and ethical consumption, plant-based alternatives have gained significant importance. Studies indicate that the global market for plant-based proteins recorded an annual growth of approximately 8-10% from 2019 to 2024. This is attributed to the rising demand for plant-based foods such as meat substitutes, plant-based dairy alternatives, and protein-rich snacks.

The next five years promise a continuation of this trend. Forecasts suggest that the market will continue to expand, supported by technological advances in protein extraction and growing acceptance in mainstream diets. Consumers are increasingly valuing products that are not only plant-based but also sustainable and healthy. Innovation in research and development will be crucial to discovering new proteins and utilizing existing protein sources more efficiently.

Eurosoy GmbH is proud to actively support scientific basic research. We collaborate closely with relevant universities by providing small quantities of our products for research purposes. These partnerships foster the understanding and advancement of proteins and their applications in human nutrition.

An example of the importance of such research is a recently published study that examined the role of protein nanofibrils derived from fava beans in modulating cell membrane surfaces. This basic research demonstrates how plant-based proteins can contribute to innovation in food technology. The findings showed that these nanofibrils altered the biophysical properties of cell membranes by influencing their structure and stability. The study emphasizes that such modifications of membrane surfaces could have significant applications in developing functional ingredients and biotechnological processes. The results pave the way for new innovations in food technology and could also be relevant for biomedical materials. More information can be found here.

Eurosoy GmbH remains committed to its mission of promoting the development of the plant-based protein market and supporting scientific progress through collaboration and knowledge transfer.
