Hamburg, September 2020
\n<\/strong>The \u201cplant-based revolution\u201d is not just one of the dominant international food trends, it is also a very apt description of the development of Hydrosol. A specialist for stabilising and texturing systems, within just a few years the company has grown to become one of the key players in the burgeoning market for plant-based alternatives. Its product portfolio has expanded enormously, and last year this expertise was bundled in the newly founded Plant Based Competence Center. Now comes the next step. Hydrosol\u2019s unit for plant-based has become an autonomous company, and as of 28 September, Planteneers \u2013 The Plant Based Pioneers \u2013 are the experts for plant-based alternatives within the Stern-Wywiol Gruppe. This new subsidiary builds on the success of Hydrosol, and is likewise led by Managing Director Dr. Matthias Moser.<\/p>\n

Growth for both Hydrosol and Planteneers<\/strong>
\n\u201cWe intend to continue to grow with both companies,\u201d emphasises Torsten Wywiol, CEO of the Stern-Wywiol Gruppe. \u201cWith that in mind, it will be important to focus on each of their strengths, and further build on them for both brands with the appropriate strategies in each case. That\u2019s the reason we separated the plant-based field out of Hydrosol. To put it differently, our former \u2018plant based baby\u2019 has grown up and is ready to strike out on its own. We\u2019re bundling its capabilities in a dedicated company.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is the perfect time, according to Dr. Moser: \u201cThe category of plant-based solutions for alternative forms of nutrition has already attained remarkable scale. But it still offers significant further growth opportunities, which we can make much better use of with a dedicated company and a focused strategy.\u201d The conditions could not be more promising. According to A.T. Kearney, through 2040 worldwide revenue with plant-based alternatives to meat products will more than triple to USD 450 billion. For alternative dairy products, Future Market Insights prognisticates a doubling of the market volume through 2029 to around USD 34.6 billion. Plant-based is also rapidly becoming a new normal in out-of-home eating. \u201cThrough intensive research, creative ideas and tireless pioneering spirit, at Planteneers we intend to play an active role in shaping the future of the industry,\u201d explains Dr. Moser. \u201cWe\u2019re definitely moving beyond just stabilising and texturising. At Planteneers we\u2019re concentrating on the development of trend product concepts in the growth categories.\u201d The focus is on plant-based alternatives to meat, sausage and fish products, dairy products and deli foods, as well as hybrid products.<\/p>\n

And Hydrosol? The company will continue to apply its proven innovative strength to its core business \u2013 the stabilisation and texturing of trend products for the dairy, meat and deli foods industry, an important area as the worldwide food industry pays more and more attention to\u00a0texture in foods. This is particularly the case for categories like free from, clean label and lean label, which continue to see steadily rising demand.<\/p>\n

Hydrosol\u2019s expertise in stabilising and texturing naturally benefits its new sister company. Close communication between the technologists of both companies ensures that plant-based desserts have the desirable creamy texture and meat alternatives feature the familiar meaty bite. Through collaboration with the other Stern-Wywiol Gruppe subsidiaries, Planteneers can offer customers attractive system solutions from a single source, from stabilising and texturing to flavouring and fortification. Dr. Moser comments: \u201cWe\u2019re positioning Planteneers as a cornerstone within the group.\u201d Issues like environmental protection and animal welfare, as well as health, are currently the main drivers for consumer purchases of plant-based alternatives, and the growing world population is bringing a new dynamic to the field. \u201cPlant-based alternatives are gaining enormously in importance. Planteneers is our clear commitment to this rapidly expanding category,\u201d notes Dr. Moser. Torsten Wywiol adds, \u201cwith this new company we are developing attractive solutions and making an important contribution to the fast-growing market for foods from plant-based alternatives. It is our clear objective to establish this newest subsidiary successfully on the international market.\u201d<\/p>\n
