According to, Peter Wesjohann, CEO PHW Group: "There is currently no other company that has demonstrated such an impressive development in the field of 3D printed meat.

Redefine Meat has announced the completion of a $6 million seed round led by CPT Capital, joined by Israel-based Hanaco Ventures, Germanys largest poultry company The PHW Group, and leading Israeli angel investors.

Redefine Meats mission is to offer a superior meat production technology that delivers products that are indistinguishable from high quality animal meat. In addition, the use of 3D printing to produce alternative meat products will enable the creation of a highly productive and flexible 21st-century supply chain that is dramatically more sustainable than current animal factory farming and meat processing. 

The company says it is developing a comprehensive solution that combines a proprietary semi-industrial 3D digital printing platform – in fact, one of the worlds fastest 3D printers, a 3D meat modeling system and plant-based food formulations. The solution delivers a new category of complex matrix "meat" that is bclaimed to be oth delicious and craveable, while also being cost-effective and scalable.

"Redefine Meat is a great fit with our portfolio of companies that are working to replac animals in the food supply chain," said Costa Yiannoulis, the CPT Capital Investment Director and new director of the Redefine Meat Board. "We are excited to partner with a company that leverages decades of digital printing experience to offer a fresh look at the way that meat will be produced. From very early on, it was clear that their unique approach has tremendous merits and has already produced some of the highest quality alternative meat products that we have ever encountered."

Redefine Meats animal-free meat comprises natural and sustainable ingredients that are claimed to deliver the same appearance, texture and flavor of animal meat used for steaks, roasts and stews. The technology will also enable meat distributors and retailers to design the characteristics of their meat to cater for seasonality, changing demands and consumers preferences with "printed meat" that is 100% predictable and replicable. Redefine Meat products have a 95% smaller environmental impact than animal meat, no cholesterol, and are said to be cost-effective.

Collaborating with leading chefs and butchers, Redefine Meat has already demonstrated various 3D-printed alt-meat products that it says are indistinguishable from animal meat, but are 100% plant-based, delicious and dramatically more sustainable and affordable.

"Weve been following Redefine Meat closely for almost a year as part of a major strategic move in agri-food investments," said Pasha Romanovski, Hanaco Ventures founding partner. "They have a unique position in a massive market, but what made us invest is the sheer progress and speed of this dedicated team."

the PHW Group sees Redefine Meat as a strategic investment, especially regarding the future product development for the European market and our broad distribution network."

"Our goal is not just to develop a new food product, but to introduce a new technology for developing, producing and scaling alt-meat products. We have already successfully printed great products for multiple foodie events, and over the coming 12 months, we will take the technology to the next level wher we expect to make a huge impact on the meat market and the future of our planet. Were delighted to have secured this investment, and to be working with high-quality investors, who share our vision and can support Redefine Meat on its path to become an industry leader," said Eshchar Ben-Shitrit, Co-Founder and CEO at Redefine Meat.

Redefine Meat was founded in 2018 fueled by growing concern over the sustainability of the meat industry, the ability to meet food requirements of the worlds growing population, and compassion for animals.
