BiaSol is an Offaly-based business that is on a mission to eliminate food waste by using ingredients that are left over from the manufacturing process.
“We take the grain back to our facility where we have a process to turn it into delicious and nutritious food ingredients.” “It seemed like a good way to do more with less. We realised with craft brewing exploding in Ireland over the last decade, that this was an opportunity. I ended up calling a bunch of breweries to see if we could even get the grain.”
BiaSol’s products include scone and pancake mixes along with morning cereals, all developed using upcycled grains. The business is supported by Enterprise Ireland and Dooley said the agency has proven a valuable aid to the development of BiaSol. BiaSol has also become an official supplier to the IRFU and that was one of the first big endorsements the business received.
