Brenntag to distribute Axiom’s plant proteins in U.S., Canada

The Brenntag Food & Nutrition business unit in North America, part of the Brenntag Group, has announced a new collaboration with Axiom Foods for the distribution of Axiom’s plant proteins in the United States and Canada. Axiom Foods provides clean label ingredients for the food, beverage, nutraceutical, and specialty foods industries, including hemp, pea, pumpkin, rice, and sacha inchi proteins; oat and rice dairy-replacement powders; and Axiom’s newly launched texturized pea proteins.

The ingredients can be used as plant proteins for sports nutrition, beverages, and meat replacements or blended extenders, as well as plant-based dairy alternatives. Some benefits include increased juiciness and protein levels, a decrease in costs, a smooth mouthfeel, and a clean, allergen-friendly label.

“We are pleased to announce our new collaboration with Axiom Foods. Axiom’s product line is an exciting addition to our product portfolio as it helps meet the growing demand for meat and dairy alternatives,” said Larry Davis, vice president, Brenntag Food & Nutrition North America. “We continue our service excellence commitment to customers by strategically expanding our product lines to satisfy current and future trends. Our customers will greatly benefit from the combination of Axiom’s plant-based proteins and our dedicated sales and technical teams.”
