Today’s consumers are increasingly looking for high-protein, plant-based options in all areas in their diet.
With Vertis™ CanolaPRO®, our highly functional and versatile rapeseed protein isolate, you can easily create high-protein sports and lifestyle nutrition products such as delicious protein bars and smooth ready-to-mix (RTM) or ready-to-drink (RTD) shakes, and also protein-fortified versions of a wide range of products such as cereals, pasta, spreads, and beyond- all while delivering the taste and texture your consumers love.
At dsm-firmenich we go beyond supplying high-quality ingredients. Whether you are developing a protein bar, sports shake, a high-protein bread or crunchy granola, we offer the application expertise, regulatory support and nutritional know-how to bring your ideas to life quickly, effectively and in line with market demands.

Vertis™ CanolaPRO® combines complete protein source, outstanding functionality, and a low environmental footprint. As the first commercially available certified Upcycled® plant protein with a PDCAAS of 1, it helps you create delicious and nutritious products that are better for both consumers and the planet.
(Fortification and protein related claims are subject to the specific regulatory requirements of the intended market.)
To succeed in the fast-evolving world of high-protein products, you need a solutions partner that understands not only the science part, but also the shifting trends, consumer needs, and formulation realities. At dsm-firmenich, we help you overcome the most common (and sometimes complex) challenges in protein fortification, plant-based and blended product development.
Great taste is non-negotiable for success. Many plant proteins come with sensory characteristics that can create barriers for consumer acceptance. Vertis™ CanolaPRO® has excellent functional properties helping you create products with the right texture and smooth mouthfeel. If need be, our custom masking solution ModulaSENSE® for Vertis™ CanolaPRO® is designed to offset potential sensory hurdles to enhance overall palatability.
Many plant proteins fall short when it comes to overall protein quality and amino acid balance. Delivering a complete protein with a PDCAAS of 1 Vertis™ CanolaPRO® is nutritionally comparable to some animal proteins such as whey. Ideal for closing amino acid gaps in blends with other plant proteins.
Bridging the nutritional gap between animal and plant-based is essential for meeting the needs of consumers. There is a growing interest in products that combine plant and animal proteins for better nutrition and sustainability.
Today’s consumers want options that align with their dietary needs and lifestyle choices. This includes a growing number of consumers with food allergies, as well as those looking for non-GMO, solvent-free or clean label options.
Environmental impact is not only a purchase, but also a business driver. Demand is strong for natural ingredients that are sustainably sourced and made with less waste.
High-protein formulations often face challenges during processing, compromising product quality. Technical support is essential for best product outcome.
Reducing sugar while maintaining taste is a key challenge. Plant-based sweeteners are a great fit for consumers looking to avoid artificial ingredients.
Ready-to-mix (RTM) and ready-to-drink (RTD) beverages serve a wide range of consumer needs nowadays: from muscle building, maintenance, and weight management to satiety support and portion control, including those following weight-loss medication protocols.

Many food and beverage brands highlight the health and sustainability benefits of their plant-based offerings. But,to make those claims truly meaningful to consumers, effective sugar reduction is essential.
Here’s the challenge: too often, low sugar leads to bitterness, off-notes, or poor texture. Artificial sweeteners aren’t the solution either- many consumers reject them. What they really want is natural, clean-label sweetness.
At dsm-firmenich, we offer a full portfolio of plant-based sweeteners and taste solutions, including stevia and monk fruit, backed by formulation expertise that helps brands deliver great taste, texture and label appeal- all in a more sustainable way.
