Above Food Showcases Disruptive Oat Base Ingredient at Expo West 2022

Above Food Showcases Disruptive Oat Base Ingredient at Expo West 2022

Above Food Corp. (Above Food), a first-of-its-kind, vertically integrated plant-based food company, announced it will be showcasing its Oat Base –– a revolutionary ingredient for the production of plant-based dairy products –– at Expo West in Anaheim, March 9-12, 2022. Launching in fall 2022, Oat Base will be a cornerstone product in Above Food’s Specialty Ingredients division.

With the rapid growth of plant-based dairy across categories, Above Food Specialty Ingredients’ Oat Base serves as a blank canvas for use as a core ingredient across plant-based beverages, ice cream, cheeses, spreads, and more. Developed by formulators, for formulators, and made from three simple ingredients –– water, oats, and natural enzymes –– the product delivers class-leading taste, texture, and functionality. Leveraging Above Food’s globally patented Sonic MillingTM technology, Oat Base achieves under 150um particle size, creates zero waste water, and preserves key nutrients found in the whole oat grain.

“We are thrilled to showcase this disruptive oat ingredient with zero wastewater and a significantly more efficient process relative to the traditional process, allowing us to provide a superior hydrolyzed oat base at scale to the growing plant-based dairy segment,” said Mike Marshall, president of Above Food Specialty Ingredients. “We know the market is looking for a steady supply of plant-based dairy ingredients, and what we’ve built truly enables that.”

Grounded in a commitment to ESG, Above Food Specialty Ingredients’ Oat Base supports regenerative agriculture, from seed to glass. To do this, Above Food partners with individual oat growers through its regenerative farmer partnership program. This program provides planting seed, agronomic support for a regenerative crop rotation, price transparency, and long-term commitments, ensuring complete traceability back to the farm, the highest quality oats, and the long-term health of our planet and soil.

Above Food CEO, Lionel Kambeitz, shared, “What we’ve accomplished here is truly monumental: the ability to take our oats all the way from the seed to a high-value ingredient that can be used by any organization across our industry cost effectively and at scale.”

Above Food Specialty Ingredients’ Oat Base will be available to customers across North America this fall in a range of a-septic packaging formats for easy use and integration into existing production processes. Alongside the newly announced Oat Base ingredient, Above Food will be showcasing a range of new innovations across its CPG brands: Eat Up!, Culcherd, Farmer Direct Organic, Loma Linda, Neat, and TUNO at Expo West.
