A Family Owned Passion

ClonBio Foods is reimagining the future of sustainable food ingredients.

We create innovative plant-based proteins and fibers that deliver exceptional nutrition, health benefits, and functional performance with a positive environmental impact.

Powered by one of the world’s most advanced biorefineries, we unite scale, quality, and science to help our customers develop smarter, more sustainable food and beverage solutions. Our approach is rooted in circular innovation, turning natural grains into high-value ingredients that nourish people and protect the planet.

At ClonBio Foods, we think differently about ingredients, transforming nature’s potential into solutions for a healthier world. We pioneered a barley protein process where sugars are converted into biofuels, and what remains is a nutritionally rich, high-protein and fiber ingredient.

Turning Every Grain Into Good

In today’s food system, too much potential is lost, millions of tons of nutrients wasted every year. At ClonBio Foods, we see this not as a waste, but as opportunity.

Our circular grain-refining process unlocks the full value of every harvest: starches become renewable alcohol and biofuels, proteins and fibers are transformed into nutritious foods and high-quality animal feeds. By ensuring nothing is wasted, we create more from less, nourishing people, supporting farmers, and protecting the planet. This enables us to develop ingredients that are affordable and more available.

Guided by Science

At ClonBio, science guides everything we do. Our researchers work to preserve the natural goodness in every grain, from maintaining the natural soluble fibers in corn that support gut health, immunity, and metabolic balance, to pioneering protein and fiber rich ingredients from barley that retain the rich micronutrients of this ancient grain. By combining innovation with respect for nature, we create ingredients that are as good for people as they are for the planet.

Making a difference in local agriculture and communities

Supporting up to 6,000 jobs annually, we’ve helped breathe new life into rural communities, reversing outmigration and creating a place where families choose to stay and thrive. But our commitment to people goes well beyond employment. We actively support local initiatives, including cultural events, sports programmes and charity efforts to enrich community life.
