OSAKA -- Major Japanese engineering company Hitachi Zosen will start selling synthetic protein to artificial meat producers as soon as 2025, Nikkei has learned, using a process that reduces production costs by about 90%.
The artificial meat protein will be made using a method developed by NUProtein, a startup based in Tokushima city, Japan. Hitachi Zosen also streamlined a step in the production process to further drive down costs.
