Mosa Meat opens largest cultivated meat campus to date

Mosa Meat, the leading name in the cultivated meat industry, has opened the world's largest scale-up facility for the production of beef grown directly from animal cells on Monday 8 May. The new facility, which is part of the Center for Advanced Meat Production, Upscaling, and Sustainability (C.A.M.P.U.S.), covers an area of 2,760 square metres (29,708 square feet) and completes the total footprint of 7,340 square metres (79,007 square feet).

On Monday, the Mayor of Maastricht, Annemarie Penn-te Strake, and the Governor of Limburg, Emile Roemer, joined the Mosa Meat team for a ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the launch of the facility. As part of the event, Chef Hans van Wolde, who holds two Michelin stars, cooked a cultivated burger and gave a demonstration of its unique and delicious taste. The launch event was attended by a select group of 50 investors, journalists, and value chain partners from around the world.

Tens of thousands of cultivated hamburgers

The new facility will have the capacity to make tens of thousands of cultivated hamburgers, which can be increased up to hundreds of thousands per year as the demand increases. The company's contract manufacturer in Singapore is also expected to further increase production capacity.

Chef Hans van Wolde, who worked with the Mosa Meat team during the development of the new product, said that he was ‘blown away’ by the beefy taste and amazing mouthfeel of the beef fat.

Milestone

The new facility marks a significant milestone for the cultivated meat industry, which aims to create sustainable alternatives to traditional meat production. Mosa Meat's new facility will provide a boost to the industry and offer consumers an ethical and environmentally friendly way to enjoy meat products.
