Crespel & Deiters will demonstrate how plant-based raw materials can be turned into functional food ingredients and application-specific solutions through targeted technological refinement. The ever-expanding portfolio of the family-owned company includes wheat, pea and fava bean, with regional soy ingredients set to follow.

VEPRONA GmbH, a supplier of soy raw materials from single-variety, identity-preserved cultivation in Europe, has a new shareholder in refinement specialist and ingredient manufacturer Crespel & Deiters, who joins existing owners farmsaat and L. Stroetmann. The partners plan to expand the product range with functional soy ingredients tailored to defined technological properties for an enhanced nutritional profile and efficient processing.  

In the development of plant-based meat and fish alternatives, wheat and pea protein rank among the most widely used ingredients. Crespel & Deiters, specialist in the refinement of renewable plant-based raw materials, delivers proven value through the precise control of functionality and product properties. With Lory® Tex Granules, a pea-based extrudate, the company has created an ingredient engineered to meet the specific demands of modern food formulation – delivering functional performance in production, a well-defined nutritional profile and raw materials sourced solely from European agriculture.  

Despite their popularity, fried snacks and convenience products are facing growing pressure in terms of consumer taste expectations, nutritional content and sustainability. With Lory® Crumb Non Fry, Crespel & Deiters Food presents an innovative breading system that delivers a crisp texture and golden-brown appearance without the need for frying. The result: Cost- and energy-efficient processes, and end products with an improved nutritional profile that perfectly meet the needs of manufacturers looking to address evolving market requirements.
