Lantmännen is an agricultural cooperative and Northern Europe’s leader in agriculture, machinery, bioenergy and food products.
We refine the output from arable land into bioenergy and new bio-based products and materials. One important part of this innovation area is our exploration on how to develop and repurpose sidestreams across the value chain.
Old bread is recycled into biofuel
Most of the grain grown in Sweden does not have the quality needed to be used for flour, bread or pasta. Some of this grain goes to Agroetanol’s biofineries and becomes biofuel. Residues from bakeries and the food industry are also taken care of, as is bread that is not sold in grocery stores.
Innovation across the whole value chain
Our research and innovation is centered around three main themes:
Agriculture & Machinery
Lantmännen’s mission is to contribute to the productivity, profitability and sustainability of farming. That is why we make large investments in research and innovation with arable land and farm needs in focus. Through these investments, we are constantly moving towards the Farming of the Future - farming where we work to increase food production, while at the same time reduce our climate impact.
