Solar Foods has signed MoUs with two international customers to commercialize 6,000 tonnes of its air-based protein, Solein, per year. The agreements outline the collaboration's principles, which aim to deepen the development and commercialization of food and beverage products, particularly in the United States. This deal is seen as a stepping stone towards the final investment decision for Solar Foods' Factory 02, which is expected to be fully operational in 2030 with an annual capacity of 12,800 tons.

In addition, Finnish food company Fazer will launch three limited-edition protein snacks made with Solein in the US under its Taste the Future concept. These snacks, which include an oat snack drink, a snack bar, and a Banoffee flavor protein drink, are characterized as a source of protein, iron, and B12. Fazer's move to introduce products made with Solein in the US follows the successful launch of an air protein-based chocolate bar in Singapore, indicating Solein's potential as an ingredient in global markets.
