“Superbrewed Food Secures Patent for Groundbreaking Postbiotic Protein, Offering Market Advantage and Product Differentiation”

Superbrewed Food Gains Significant Market Advantage with IP Protection for Postbiotic Protein

NEW CASTLE, Del., January 26, 2024–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Superbrewed Food, a pioneer in sustainable nutrition products, has announced that the U.S Patent Application Publication (No. 2023/0320399) for its revolutionary Postbiotic Protein ingredient has been approved. This patent provides a significant market advantage for Superbrewed Food and critical product differentiation for the company’s brand partners.

Key Protections Offered by the Patent

The patent allows Superbrewed Food to enjoy key protections, including:

• Coverage of all forms of bacterial-biomass proteins, including natural, non-GMO and GMO organisms that have a protein content of 60% or higher, the minimum amount required to make them useful as a food ingredient.
• Coverage of all forms of production methods, including aerobic and anaerobic, and all forms of feedstock, including sugar, agricultural waste and CO2.
• Coverage of the use of biomass protein in food products, so that consumer packaged goods companies can purchase and use Superbrewed Postbiotic Protein with confidence.
• Long term protection, as the patent protection runs through 2042.

This patent is a critical milestone in Superbrewed Food’s journey towards commercializing natural and sustainable biomass food ingredients. The patented Postbiotic Protein is animal- and allergen-free, non-GMO, and highly functional, making it a viable replacement or complement to animal and plant proteins in many existing and new food formulations.

Superbrewed Food’s Growth and Future Plans

The patent issuance caps a period of steady growth for Superbrewed Food. In 2022, the company secured self-affirmed GRAS (generally recognized as safe) status for its postbiotic, cultured protein. Later that year, it began a strategic collaboration with The Bel Group to develop a line of cheese products that incorporate Superbrewed Food’s Postbiotic Protein ingredient. In 2023, Superbrewed Food participated in the UN Climate Conference (COP28), demonstrating how sustainable food production methods can contribute to the fight against climate change.

This year, Superbrewed Food plans to ramp up its commercial scale production and rapidly expand its product offerings across North America and beyond. The company will use existing bio-manufacturing infrastructure to sustainably produce functional and nutritional ingredients at a reasonable cost.
