Company description
UFAB and its mother company Le Gouessant group have been heavily involved in crop production and processing for more than 50 years. 4000 French farmers including 200 organic certified ones have chosen to entrust us with their different crops which we handle, store and process.
We produce Protein Concentrates, Functional Starches and Fibers out of Peas and Faba Beans. We offer a large range of extruded ingredients : Texturized Vegetable Proteins, Crispy balls and snacks, Bread crumbs, Functional flours.
Our natural ingredients are manufactured without any chemicals ! And because we only require dry processing to concentrate the protein, starch and fiber, our ingredients have a low carbon footprint.
Plant-based ingredients tailored to your recipesFrench-grown peas and faba beans
We source peas and faba beans from our partner farmers in France and use mechanical processing to produce protein, starch and fibre concentrates.
Textured proteins from peas, faba beans and sunflower
Our range includes pea and faba bean TVP, pea and sunflower blends, and TVP made with sunflower as the sole protein source. We use thermomechanical extrusion to create a satisfying bite and a fibrous texture. We can tailor the size, shape and colour to suit your application, from plant-based meat and fish alternatives to hybrid burgers and fillings.
Organic and conventional ranges
We offer both organic and conventional ingredients, with options suitable for gluten-free formulations.
