In July 2024, the company e<strong>stablished operations in Eastern France<\/strong>, taking over the Metex Noovista site on the <strong>Chemesis industrial platform in Saint-Avold (Moselle)<\/strong>. <strong>Utilizing advanced fermentation technology<\/strong>, MAASH produces high-quality mycoprotein\u2014a <strong>nutritious and sustainable alternative to meat<\/strong>.

To industrialize its processes and meet the growing demand across the European market, MAASH seized the opportunity <strong>to take over the fermentation plant in Carling (Moselle)<\/strong>, originally commissioned by METEX N\u00d8\u00d8VISTA in 2021 and placed in receivership in March 2024. Approximately <strong>ten jobs have been retained, with the potential to create 70 additional jobs in the long term.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MAASH specializes in cultivating mycelium, the root structure of mushrooms, which is rich in fiber and protein. Through fermentation, this mycelium is exponentially grown to produce a dense, nutritious, and sustainable protein ingredient with a texture similar to chicken meat. This ingredient <strong>will be supplied to the food industry for use in finished products such as burgers, sausages, and nuggets.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Belgian company <strong>plans to start operations in 2026<\/strong>. In the first phase, the MAASH intends to adapt the current facilities to produce 2,000 tons per year, before reaching a production capacity of 10,000 tons per year. An extension, involving the opening of 2 additional production lines of 30,000 tons each on the available land, is already being studied to reach a capacity of 70,000 tons each year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More information : <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Testimony of Gaspard GILBERT, Co-founder of MAASH :<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed aligncenter is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The belgian foodtech MAASH sets up in Carling \/ Eastern France\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qwVn03k7oyM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MAASH is a Belgian foodtech startup that specializes in the production of fungi protein (mycoproteins).
