NEWS FEED & ADDITIVE MAGAZINE July 2025 17 BioCraft Pet Nutrition™, a biotech company that develops animal cell-cultured ingredients for the pet food market, released the results of a new product carbon footprint analysis, conducted in collaboration with ClimatePartner, a solution provider supporting companies on their journey towards net zero. The analysis showed that its proprietary BioCrafted Meat™ emits one-twelfth of the carbon dioxide of conventional beef byproducts used in pet food. According to the analysis, based on standard EU beef production processes, a hypothetical beef byproduct emits 21.28 kg CO₂ per kilogram—in comparison, BioCrafted Meat produces just 1.73 kg CO₂ per kilogram. The calculation was based on internationally recognized methodologies, including the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (GHG Protocol) and the Product Life Cycle Accounting and Reporting Standard (PDF), using emission factors from trusted databases such as ecoinvent, Agri-footprint, and DEFRA. According to the company's statement, the comparison to byproducts not typically consumed by humans—like offal, bones, blood, and fat—rather than prime beef cuts is significant because the pet food industry, and consumers, often regard these byproducts as sustainable, low-impact alternatives.
