Altograno® and the future of pasta: nutrition and quality scientifically validated

Altograno functional pasta: more fibre, more protein, more delicious

Altograno® represents a new generation of high-protein wholesome ingredients, designed to revolutionise the very concept of pasta. It is a wholesome ingredient with less gluten and fewer carbohydrates, developed to offer more fibre, more plant-based protein and an advanced nutritional profile.

Thanks to our exclusive Lavorazione Circolare®, we recover the most nutritious components of the wheat grain- such as high biological value proteins, lysine and soluble fibres.
