UpGrain AG, founded in 2025, is at the forefront of sustainable innovation by transforming brewery sidestreams into high-value raw materials. Their unique process upcycles barley used in brewing, converting it into protein and fiber-rich ingredients. This not only reduces waste but also offers sustainable alternatives to traditional protein sources like soy or pea protein.
With their slogan, "UpGrain transforms brewery sidestreams into valuable raw materials, creating protein and fiber-rich ingredients," the company emphasizes an eco-conscious approach that aligns with global efforts to combat climate change and manage food resource challenges. Through advanced upcycling technology, UpGrain AG positions itself as a pioneering entity within the circular economy, although it is currently lacking geographical headquarters and has not yet publicly disclosed investment rounds.
