We developed proprietary protein texturing technology that enables us to produce plant-based whole cuts. Our vision is to produce a variety of meat products and match and eventually outcompete animal-derived counterparts by taste, price, and convenience. We want to accelerate the transition of the meat industry into a more sustainable future - by 2030 we want to cut meat consumption in half.

We make food from CO2. Arkeon was founded with a mission to serve people and the planet by revolutionizing food production. We believe in regenerating the world and are proud to have found a way to nourish people while revitalizing ecosystems. Our proprietary ingredient production process is changing the way we produce food, turning industrial CO2 into versatile protein ingredients through microbial gas fermentation. Were pioneers in the sustainable production of all 20 proteinogenic amino acids, creating carbon-negative, clean-label functional ingredients. Our technology has vast potential for food security and decarbonizing heavy industry. In July 2023, we opened a Pilot Production Facility in Seestadt, Austria, and we are in the process of setting up our Demo Facility in 2024-2025. Join us in our mission to turn CO2 into food and build a more sustainable future.

Meet Raging Pig - a revolution within bacon that lets you enjoy the taste that you love in a healthy, sustainable and cruelty-free way. We’ve set out on an exciting journey to merge the power of bacon, foodtech and pop culture to drive the positive change our world needed yesterday. Treat yourself with a deep breath and imagine a world with peace. Imagine a world free from hate, no matter where you’re born or who you happen to fall in love with. Imagine a world without gender, social or economic inequality. Imagine a world where no human needs to starve. Imagine a world where all species live in harmony. Imagine a world that makes Mother Nature proud again. Sounds lovely, doesn’t it? So, will Raging Pig Company make this Utopia become reality? Probably not. However, the birth of Raging Pig Company will let us humans enjoy the delicious taste of pork without having to be a part of the, not so delicious, pig slaughtering circus ending the life of 1.5 billion life-loving pigs every year. And that’s at least a pretty decent starting point, don’t you think? Eager to join the revolution? We have an open door-policy for amazing people who want to contribute to our mission in any way. Don’t hesitate to reach out!
