Raw materials and process optimisation

New technology – including light-based measurement – enables us to measure food quality at industrial speed. At Nofima, we are constantly developing new areas of use for new technology.

New knowledge and technologies make it possible to produce food to feed the world’s growing population in brand-new ways.

Everything is connected.

Our knowledge of the raw materials, their properties and what happens to them during various production processes and our knowledge of processing and storage factors enables us to know how to maximise food quality.

We conduct research into a number of new technologies and methods for gentler food processing.

We conduct research into how to extract valuable components from raw materials to be used in new products.

Linking the information that emerges throughout the process from land or sea to the consumer enhances our knowledge of what affects the quality. This can improve the food we produce and make the food production process more sustainable.

Innovative technology, new raw materials and better utilisation of raw materials. Our researchers are continuously working on many types of product development.
