“#With 3D printed ‘steaks’, Spanish startup eyes the mass market<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

BARCELONA, June 29 \u2013 As demand for plant-based alternatives to meat rises, Barcelona-based startup Novameat is using its 3D printing technology<\/a> to manufacture vegetarian \u201csteaks\u201d that it hopes will reach the mass market next year.<\/p>\n

Novameat plans to sell its \u201csteaks\u201d directly to consumers and to businesses such as restaurants interested in producing plant-based meat, business development manager Alexandre Campos told Reuters on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The Spanish company, which developed its technology in 2018, was showing how its latest 3D printer produced food at Barcelona\u2019s Mobile World Congress (MWC).<\/p>\n

\u201cIt didn\u2019t have the feeling of a traditional steak but I was positively surprised because I did not expect that the texture would be so well achieved,\u201d said Ferran Gregori, after trying one of the \u201csteaks\u201d printed at Novameat\u2019s stand at the world\u2019s largest telecoms gathering.<\/p>\n

The company uses 3D technology to test recipes, introducing ingredients through capsules because it is a cheaper process than mass-producing, Campos said.<\/p>\n

Once a model is considered successful, it could then be produced on a larger scale in bigger machines not using 3D technology, manufacturing up to 500 kg of fake meat per hour, he added.<\/p>\n

Campos said the startup\u2019s aim had been to recreate the muscle fibres of animal meat but using 100% plant-based ingredients. He forecast the plant-based industry would keep growing at double-digit rates in the foreseeable future.<\/p>\n

The company also said it was producing the fake meat for environmental reasons.<\/p>\n

\u201c(We seek to) replace animal meat for something that is better for the planet, ourselves and animals,\u201d Campos said.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
