 | Seeking Next-Generation Equipment and Processing Technologies for Tempura Batter-Coated Fish Products |
|
Nomad Foods is seeking innovative equipment, processing technologies, or integrated solutions that enable the development of next-generation tempura batter-coated fish products. By “conventional” battering and coating systems, we mean standard waterfall/curtain batter application combined with static frying or baking, which limits coating uniformity, consistency, and yield at scale. We are looking for solutions that demonstrably improve on this baseline by delivering: a more even and well-adhered batter coating across irregular fish portions, reduced batter loss/waste during application, and greater batch-to-batch consistency of coating weight and texture. We expect proposals exclusively from commercial technology providers — equipment manufacturers, engineering firms, technology start-ups, and system integrators with deployable or near-deployable solutions. Academic institutions or research groups without a commercial product, prototype, or industrial partner are not the focus of this call. By “improve robustness” we mean equipment and processes that maintain consistent coating performance despite normal variability in raw material (fish portion size and shape), batter viscosity, and line speed, with minimal downtime or operator intervention. By “flexibility for integration” we mean compatibility with our existing battering/coating and freezing lines: solutions that can be retrofitted or integrated without requiring a full line replacement, and that can accommodate multiple product formats (fillets, portions, nuggets) on the same equipment. |
| | Seeking a next generation material for safe Microwave, Oven and Air Fryer cooking from frozen |
|
As a global market leader in the frozen food sector, Nomad Foods is seeking advanced material solutions capable of maintaining structural and chemical integrity across an extreme thermal lifecycle: from deep-freeze storage at -18°C to active cooking in microwaves, air fryers, and conventional ovens (up to 220°C). The material must not adversely affect the product in any way: Proposals must demonstrate that the material has zero organoleptic impact, ensuring no migration of taste, odor, or aroma to the food product throughout its lifecycle. To ensure the long-term sustainability of our packaging portfolio, the material must achieve a RecyClass Recyclability Assessment Method (RAM) rating of Grade A or B. This may be accomplished through the use of an appropriate barrier coating or by utilising an existing recyclable substrate. The packaging format remains open, though our preference is to identify solutions that could replace our current flexible plastic cook‑in pouches or trays. The technology we are seeking should be at the functional prototype stage. The proposed packaging format must enable a high-performance "cook-in-pack" solution for our consumers. This technology will facilitate steam-cooking directly within the bag, pouch, or enclosed material, preserving the nutritional integrity of the food. The material must offer high transparency, allowing consumers to see the product, allowing us to showcase our vibrant, high-quality ingredients, emphasizing the premium nature and freshness of the Nomad Foods portfolio. |
 | Process for converting waste, effluents and organic by-products in recyclable materials |
|
Biological process to treat waste, effluents and organic by-products with industrial origin characterized by high biodegradability. This process adds value to convention-al biological treatment processes, integrating their assumptions on the concept of biorefinery, simultaneously allowing reducing and eliminating organic matter and incorporating organic components in added-value mate-rials (lipids, gases with energetic potential, volatile organic acids and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), instead of discharging as primary products to the environment. The invention aims to reduce by 96% the organic matter content of the starting substrate allowing generally meet the discharge criteria set out in the legislation. |
 | Advanced organic compounds with enhanced thermal energy storage capacity |
|
Production of ionic liquids, bisimidazolium salts obtained from glycerol and carboxylic acids, which show a high thermal energy storage (TES) capacity. Multi-application technology based on new phase change materials (PCM) with higher thermal properties than those used nowadays. These compounds are bisimidazolium salts, which may be obtained from affordable natural sources - fats and oils, usually by-products at the agro-food industry - through a patented procedure. |
 | Point-Cloud Modeling for High-Resolution 3D Facial Recognition |
|
This technology addresses the challenge of identifying individuals from low-quality security camera footage. Traditional systems struggle with partial facial captures and obscured features due to the camera's focus on broad areas. This technology collects facial features across multiple images, determining the face's angle to the camera and extracting images to form a comprehensive set. These images are then transformed into a high-resolution 3D point cloud model. Unlike existing methods, this approach provides a dense, detailed facial representation, improving identification accuracy. This model can directly facilitate recognition or be converted back into a facial image, offering superior resolution. The system's intelligent sampling varies resolution based on feature significance, and is able to optimize computation. |
