Rescue Food Waste Into Sustainable Fibers
We transform “bad” casein protein into “good” casein protein from excess milk. Once we have the “good” casein protein, it can be made into cheese, yogurt, and other types of dairy products or be created as fibers. We are giving food waste a new life.
Project
Proposal
Mi Terro is the world’s only social impact biotechnology company that rescues food waste and turns it into food protein. We transform “bad” casein protein into “good” casein protein from excess milk. Once we have the “good” casein protein, it can be made into cheese, yogurt, and other types of dairy products. We are giving food waste a new life.
Not only that, but we can also turn casein protein into soft, sustainable, and affordable fibers. Our fibers can apply to apparel, medical appliances, bed linen, and packaging film.
Through our patent-pending technology, we created the world’s first apparel line made from excess milk. We are also creating packaging film made from whey. We are replacing petroleum-based materials with protein-based materials made from food waste. We are redefining the circular economy in which everything begins with food waste and ends as recyclable or biodegradable.
Solution
Details
What region(s) or state(s) do you currently have operations in?
Hungary - Gödölő, Cserdi United Kingdom - Preston Model Worldwide permaculture movements
Is there a specific region or state where you plan to focus on for this project?
NO as each area has its own specific characteristics locally For our proposal needs more than 12 weeks as this time enough only for an isolated patchwork solution.
How far developed is your proposal?
I have an idea but it needs to be developed, 6-12 weeks until ready for implementation.
Is there any legal protection for the solution?
