Solar Foods' 'protein from air' product, Solein, has reached a critical milestone in its journey toward commercialisation. The innovative protein, which is derived from air and electricity through a unique fermentation process, has obtained self-affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognised as Safe) status, marking a significant step towards its introduction to the US market.

With the self-affirmed GRAS status, Solar Foods anticipates launching its commercial operations in the U.S. by the end of the year, allowing them to begin marketing and sales activities. This status is a significant precursor to further regulatory steps, including registering their production facility with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Chief Commercial Officer Juan Benitez-Garciaat Solar Foods says "Obtaining self-affirmed GRAS status is the first step towards entering the United States. We will shortly be able to launch commercial activities in this significant new market, including marketing and sales operations, and drive our growth. So far this has been possible only in Singapore".

Solein is a truly revolutionary product which offers a sustainable, nutrient-rich protein alternative disconnecting food production from traditional agriculture. As Solar Foods continues to expand its regulatory approvals, including those already secured in Singapore and pending in the UK and EU, the potential global impact of Solein grows ever more promising.
