Amber Wave Launches Production at Wheat Protein Facility Set to Become the Largest in North America

Amber Wave has launched production at its new wheat protein facility in Phillipsburg, Kansas, which is set to become the largest in North America. The facility, equipped with state-of-the-art technology in milling, wheat protein extraction, and renewable biofuels, aims to produce high-quality domestic wheat protein ingredients. The company's product, AmberPro Vital Wheat Gluten, made from local wheat, is versatile and has multiple applications in commercial baking, alternative meat, pet food, and feed.

In addition to producing wheat protein, the company also extracts starch from processed wheat to produce plant-based ethanol. With a focus on sustainability and efficiency, Amber Wave aims to optimize resources and become more competitive in the plant-based ethanol and protein production market. The company's investment in the new facility not only adds value to the region but also serves as a supply chain solution provider for its customer base, reducing the need for imported wheat gluten in the USA.
