TOP bv

TOP bv is a service provider specialized in practical innovation for the food industry. We work for and with food producers and equipment manufacturers from all over the world. For our clients and partners we design and implement unique and useful innovations. At TOP we develop food products and ingredients that are healthier, fresher and tastier, with optimal preservation of original nutrients. Our focus is on fruit and vegetables, fish- and meat products and meat substitutes. These food products and ingredients can be manufactured industrially and sold through professional channels. We develop the necessary sustainable machines and production lines, and assist in factory expansions and new constructions. Modern food products also need to be safe and have a sufficient shelf life, preventing excessive food waste in the chain. That is why we are specialized in new preservation technologies based not on chemistry but on physics. We support our customers in the development of new and disruptive technologies and new food products through applied innovation management. This concerns development of strategic partnerships, project financing, creating the right conditions and legal context. We focus on three strategy lines: Extend the shelf life of short-shelf-life fresh products by applying new technologies, thus preventing food waste in the chain. Less intensive treatment of long-shelf-life products by applying new sterilization technologies, making them tastier and healthier. Upgrade waste streams of industrial manufacturers and processers through new technologies into food products or ingredients.
