Yeastup is a food technology company based in Brugg, Aargau, founded in 2020, that focuses on promoting sustainability through the upcycling of by-products from the beer-brewing process. By transforming these by-products into high-quality ingredients, such as vegan protein and fiber, Yeastup contributes to a circular economy and provides versatile, natural alternatives for consumers. The company's ingredients are rich in essential and semi-essential amino acids, including branched-chain amino acids, making them suitable for a variety of applications in plant-based diets. Through its innovative approach, Yeastup is pioneering a new era of animal-free products that enhance global sustainability.
