Planteneers and Handtmann announced a new partnership that has seen the development of plant-based steaks and fillet strips with an impressive taste and texture that also keeps cost in mind. The partnership sees the plant-based meat brand working with the filling and portioning systems manufacturer to achieve products with authentic fibrous structures to more closely resemble meat. The partnership has thus resulted in cost-optimized steak, bacon, cooked ham and carpaccio solutions that will be showcased by Planteneers at the 2025 IFFA in Frankfurt, Germany.
Senior Product Manager at Planteneers Florian Bark spoke on the Planteneers and Handtmann partnership saying, “After the launch last year we received lots of positive feedback on our offerings. The quality of the plant-based steaks, with their marbling and fine fibre structure, was very well received by customers. This resulted in requests for further options. We got to work and developed new application possibilities for the marbling unit.”
