Rethinking flavors in the food industry

The global food industry is increasingly prioritizing sustainability and environmental responsibility. With rising awareness of climate change and resource scarcity, there is a growing demand for innovative solutions that address these challenges.

Supporting a healthy environment

One of the significant environmental challenges in the food industry concerns how popular flavors end up in consumers’ mouths. These challenges can come in many shapes and forms, e.g. bad farming practices in one, frequent use of chemicals and artificial additives in a second, or a high reliance on animal-based products in a third.

The common denominator for the various challenges related to many popular flavors is that they pose a threat to our planet and/or our health.

Natural alternative to popular flavours

Nocla confronts the challenges by offering a natural alternative to some of the popular flavors that have a large impact on our planet and/or health.

This is done by leveraging traditional fermentation techniques to create the desired taste profiles in a more sustainable way. Always plant-based, organic and Danish ingredients as the basis for the fermentation.

On top of this, the production is done at a scale that allows Nocla to be cost-competitive vs the traditional alternatives in need of replacement.

High quality and sustainability with fermentation

The production setup is versatile, which allows Nocla to create a wide variety of popular flavors through fermentation.

This comes as an advantage for chefs, who can make tasteful dishes with a more responsible profile. It also gives food producers the chance to replace existing flavors with more sustainable alternatives. All of this to the benefit of our planet and our health.

Nocla operates as a full-service “taste partner” as the company develops, produces and implements fermented flavors of the highest quality. All of this in order to make the alternative available in professional kitchens and for food producers.

Nocla’s first product is “Kornfond” (grain stock), which is a completely natural alternative. Just the power of fermentation applied on organic, Danish pearl barley.

“Kornfond” is the first product of several flavorings launching this fall 2024.

Nocla is an innovative food company specializing in sustainable and natural flavorings for professional kitchens and food producers.
