The wait is over: Meet the Sustainability Impact Award Finalists

Narrowing down an incredible pool of impressive entries was no easy feat, but the expert jury has finally named the 5 finalists for the Sustainability Impact Award 2026. Each contender stood out for their unique solutions and commitment to sustainable progress. Now, the competition intensifies as only one will take home the award.

Who will take home the Sustainability Impact Award 2026?

Our expert panel of professionals (see list below) from the food and agricultural sector has selected 5 finalists. Important criteria are the uniqueness of the product or service, the contribution to solving environmental problems and whether the product or service is economically sustainable (ROI).

And the 5 finalists are:

• NOTTINGHAM TRENT UNIVERSITY
  Product/Service: Circular Protein Feed from Biorefineries (Ultra-High Protein / Corn-Fermented Protein) + Adoption Support

• WAGENINGEN LIVESTOCK RESEARCH
  Product/Service: ANCA (Annual Nutrient Cycle Assessment), in Dutch: “Kringloopwijzer”

• NOVONESIS
  Product/Service: Bovacillus™ probiotic

• ADM
  Product/Service: ADM’s regenerations™ , a multinational regenerative agriculture program

• CHAINCRAFT
  Product/Service: C-Craft®: upcycling agri-food residues into high-purity medium chain fatty acids (MCFAs).

Sustainability in the animal livestock sector is a hot topic, to differentiate as a company or organisation, but also to contribute to a future proof animal protein production. This could be seen across the huge number of entries for the Misset International Sustainability Impact Award. Quality and impact of the entries were highly valued by the members of the jury. They accepted the challenge to bring the number of finalists down to 5. This was no easy feat and that is a good thing. The jury members will delve even deeper into the finalist entries to identify the award winner. Let’s make an impact!” – Fabian Brockötter Misset International Editorial director

Stay tuned and get to know the 5 finalists and their innovations as we showcase them across our media channels ahead of the June 3 award ceremony.
