Nutrition from Water (NXW) introduces Marine Whey Golden 35

Nutrition from Water (NXW) has launched Marine Whey Golden 35 (MWG35), a clean-label, golden-hued protein ingredient designed for bakery and dairy applications. It features a neutral taste, high digestibility, strong emulsion performance, and fixed price stability compared to conventional dairy and non-dairy protein alternatives.

"With MWG35, we're pushing the boundaries of what marine protein can achieve, specifically around affordable nutrition," commented Federico Duarte, CEO of NXW. "This is about complementing dairy and solving the growing dairy nutrition gap. With our latest product, we have crafted a superior, nutritionally complete ingredient that is delicious, scalable, affordable, and backed by nature.”

Following its validation at MISTA’s Biomass Hack in November 2024, MWG35 has emerged as a nutritionally sound, allergen-free protein with a complete amino acid profile. By harnessing microscopic algae found in pure bodies of water, NXW extracts a clean protein that is free from hormones, genetic modification, and pesticides. MWG35 is suited for a range of industrial food manufacturing applications, where its golden color enhances sensory appeal in baked goods, custards, and tropical-flavored dairy alternatives, such as mango-based products.

NXW’s Marine Whey natural fermentation technology utilizes highly efficient microscopic algae, cultivated through a proprietary process that promotes biodiversity and water ecosystem restoration. "Our microalgae technology enables fast growth and high scalability, meaning we can provide a stable supply of low-impact protein whilst ensuring sufficient downstream margin for our B2B partners,” added Payam Mehrshahi, NXW’s Chief Technology Officer. "And with its neutral sensory profile, MWG35 can be seamlessly integrated into a variety of food applications."

As the food industry faces cost volatility, supply chain challenges, and shifting consumer demands, MWG35 presents a stable and scalable solution for manufacturers looking to secure cost-effective and sustainable protein sources. With its consistent pricing and functional versatility, MWG35 provides food producers – particularly in the bakery and dairy sectors – with a practical option for future-proofing their ingredient strategies.
