Plantible Foods
Developing the most functional and applicable plant-based protein in the world using scalable and sustainable aqua-farming and extraction technologies
Plantible Foods produces Rubi™, a functional, non-GMO protein derived from Lemna, a fast-growing aquatic plant. The company vertically integrates cultivation and extraction, using closed-loop greenhouse pond systems to preserve protein functionality. Based in the U.S., with commercial-scale operations in Texas, Plantible has secured over $40M in contracts with partners like Nestlé, Chipotle, and Kellanova. Long-term, it aims to replace animal-based and synthetic ingredients in global food systems with one sustainable, high-performance plant protein.
