Perfat Technologies, a Finnish deep-tech startup, has secured €2.5 million in Series A funding to develop its proprietary technology, which transforms liquid vegetable oils into solid fats. These new fat alternatives are designed to address health and sustainability concerns by offering a healthier replacement for traditional fats like butter and palm oil. The product has up to 80% less fat and 30% fewer calories and is reinforced with fiber, making it a functional and clean-label option for food manufacturers. This innovation is well-positioned to meet the growing demand for sustainable food ingredients while promoting consumer health and environmental sustainability.
