Inspired by Agriculture and Circular Economy
Kern Tec is a B2B ingredient company specialising in the innovative production of food products using underutilised resources from the fruit industry, specifically apricot, cherry and plum pits. In Europe, fruit pits are typically considered waste, particularly within the juice industry. However, these largely untapped resources possess significant potential due to their valuable proteins and fats. At Kern Tec, we employ a washing and drying process to separate the seeds and shells, unlocking their full potential. With our patented process we have successfully established seed-based products on the plant-based alternative market. Continuous innovation allows us to maintain our zero-waste philosophy.
