Our Mission
Crush Dynamics is a leader in ingredient innovation, with a clear mission in upcycling polyphenol rich agricultural side streams into sustainable, multi-functional food ingredients. Our first generation of ingredients is derived from pressed grapes—the nutrient-rich skins and seeds left after winemaking. Traditionally discarded creating a significant amount of methane emissions and other environmental impact, this polyphenol-packed “side stream” is transformed through our patented fermentation process into minimally processed ingredients that enhance flavour, improve texture, and naturally extend shelf life. Additionally, these ingredients reduce bitterness and vegetal notes in formulation, creating a cleaner, more balanced taste while supporting a more sustainable food system.
