Our goals

Our ambition with ScanOats is to take a world-leading role in the development of unique products and applications based on oat. The centre will form a link between advanced basic research and industrial applications. This dual approach will benefit Swedish industry, society and agriculture in terms of new knowledge, new products, improved health, a more sustainable environment, increased exports and new jobs. Through the unifying force that ScanOats will provide, we expect that a variety of products and innovations will be delivered partly through members’ activities and partly by ScanOats directly.

ScanOats will:

– Contribute to sustainable agriculture and food consumption

– Provide preventive health by health-promoting foods

– Establish new technologies, techniques and new products

– Increase sales and export
