Exalant and VivoProtect join Krinova’s Food Incubator
Exalant and VivoProtect are the newest companies to join Krinova’s Food Incubator. With a focus on sustainability and international growth, they share the ambition to contribute to a more competitive and resource-efficient food industry in Sweden.
Krinova’s Food Incubator gives startups access to business development, networks and test environments, enabling them to build sustainable, competitive business models and reach the market. Being accepted into the incubator is both a mark of quality and an opportunity to accelerate the company’s development.
- Based in Vinslöv, Exalant has developed a patent-pending drying system that enables efficient drying of waste and by-products from the food industry while preserving product quality and nutritional content. This enhances output and profitability for food producers by reducing waste and losses, leading to more sustainable food management.
- VivoProtect, founded by two researchers at Lund University, develops products based on specific probiotic bacterial strains that can inhibit the growth of pathogenic microorganisms in vegetables, increase crop yields, and extend the shelf life of packaged produce. They have demonstrated strong results in both laboratory and field trials, aiming to improve food safety and producer profitability while reducing food waste.
“Exalant and VivoProtect both have strong business ideas with great potential, and we look forward to supporting them in the next step of their journey,” says Klara Lindström, Business Designer at Krinova Incubator & Science Park.
