The world is constantly changing and that evolution is what makes companies survive over time. Regarding the sector gastronomicThis growth is directly related to the search for food that meets a series of requirements. That is to say, in addition to their health, that their ingredients are processed as little as possible, that they have a sustainable character and that they are locally produced, if possible. All these conditions meet Siro Foods Cereal with its new release: a range of organic pasta which is also a pioneer in the Spanish market. Let's find out how this product is different from all the others!
Organic pasta: the quality of a unique product
This bet of Syro cereal it is quite a milestone. This new type of pasta is made with sustainable agricultural production wheat varieties. These cereals are grown in Castilla y León and are 100% traceable. This means that food can be “tracked” at all stages of its production. These conditions make them a raw material unique and top quality. It is an investigation that has been ongoing since 2015, the year in which they began to collaborate with farmers from the Castilian Autonomous Community.
Through its Alma Prima Project -which we will know later-, he explained Marco Ferrao, Director of Strategic Marketing of the company, for ARAL magazine, they seek to “recover the cultivating traditional wheat in a sustainable way”. It is an exhaustive work, since “after analyzing 190 varieties of wheat we have selected only those of the highest quality, with a natural harvest and conservation of the grain that allows to preserve all its properties and achieve an inimitable pasta with the highest standards. quality".
The result is a product with properties that, in addition to providing an unbeatable flavor and texture, also contains 13 grams of protein per 100. If you want to try it, this organic pasta is now available through the firm Carrefour Circle of Quality in the form of macaroni, spaghetti and noodles.
A total commitment to sustainability
And since we are committed, we do it 100%, right? Therefore, it is not that it is only organic pasta, but the packaging also has its non-harmful function for the environment. And it is packaged with a the packaging compostable which has been made with paper and PLA -polylactic acid derived from recycling corn waste-.
The advantage of this system is that it can be recycled in "organic waste containers", which favors, in addition to the sustainability they show off, the circular economy that characterizes the firm. Because that is another: in its eagerness to take advantage of every last grain of matter, "it uses the residues of the production of its factories to generate the energy that feeds its production lines", as advertised on the official site.
This model has already paid off, because in 2019 it achieved the declaration of Zero Discharge in all plants on the Iberian Peninsula -including Portugal- and "fulfilled its commitment by 2030 to reduce its carbon emissions between 15% and 20%".
Alma Prima project: cereals as a way of life
La organic pasta what has launched Siro Foods Cereal is part, as we have said before, of the Alma Prima Project. A project that undertakes, throughout the entire production chain -from when it is planted in the field until it is served on the table-, to working with the best raw materials to offer the best possible final product. That is why the company has written the first sustainability decalogue for the Pasta category. This document collects 10 commitments that Cerealto Siro continues in the preparation of its pasta.
“Commitments to society and the environment, for sustainable production. The pasta is wheat, water, knowledge and passion”, Assured Ferróni. "It is vital for all of us to continue building a better and more sustainable world," added the Director of Strategic Marketing. As you can see, the new organic pasta range it is more than just pasta. It is a promise, a commitment and practically a philosophy of life in search of a richer, closer and more sustainable way of eating.
