company
Axiom Foods is the world’s first, largest and most innovative source of allergen-friendly whole grain brown rice (WGBR) ingredients. For more than 20 years, David Janow has helped lead the industry, working closely with food, beverage, nutraceutical and specialty food manufacturers.
Our commitment to advanced technology and rigorous quality control drives a growing portfolio of whole grain brown rice protein concentrates and isolates, sugars, sugar solids, milks, flours and starches. Every Axiom ingredient is produced through an all-natural, patented process using whole grain brown rice.
The result is dietary-inclusive ingredients that help manufacturers create “Better for You” products for a wider range of consumers. Axiom ingredients meet international standards for gluten-free, vegan, vegetarian, kosher, non-GMO and free-from formulations.
Since 2005, Axiom Foods has been unlocking the potential of whole grain brown rice as a high-performance food ingredient. It began with Oryzatein® — the first and only brown rice protein of its kind — and continues today with our 2.1 generation, now tested with no measurable lead levels.

Two decades of pioneering plant protein.
David Janow became a recognized expert in rice protein manufacturing when he created the first feed-grade specification for rice protein in 2002 — a standard still used today. What started in animal nutrition became a mission to improve human health.
David Janow creates the feed-grade specification for rice protein in animal food — the first of its kind. The specification is adopted by major pet manufacturers and recognized as the industry standard, establishing a 65% protein concentration that competitors struggled to replicate without chemical shortcuts.
FoundationWhile competitors resorted to adding Melamine to falsely achieve protein measurements in feed-grade products, Axiom Foods remained committed to proprietary, chemical-free processes — maintaining protein levels consistently higher than any competitor without compromise.
IntegrityDavid starts Axiom Foods with a singular vision: bring the benefits of whole grain brown rice protein to human nutrition. Oryzatein® becomes the world's first food-grade, hexane-free rice protein — setting a standard no competitor had achieved. Celiac patients, vegans, lactose-intolerant consumers, and athletes all gain access to a clean, complete protein source.
FoundingAxiom commissions peer-reviewed clinical research on Oryzatein® — the first studies to compare rice protein head-to-head with whey for muscle protein synthesis. Results show equivalence, giving Oryzatein® the only clinical backing in the plant protein category.
ScienceAxiom launches Oryz-O-Lait™ rice milk powder and AvenOlait® oat milk powder — extending the WGBR platform into the fast-growing dairy alternatives market. Both products are produced in the USA with no growth hormones, steroids, or antibiotics.
ExpansionStrategic partnerships with Brenntag, Healy Group, and leading regional distributors give Axiom a commercial footprint in 30+ countries. The network supports consistent supply at scale for multinational food and beverage manufacturers.
GrowthAxiom introduces CLEAR Proteins — patent-pending 100% soluble rice and pea protein that dissolves as a true clear solution in water, even in acidic beverages. No gums required. A breakthrough for the booming protein water and clear RTD market.
InnovationAfter years of R&D, Axiom launches Oryzatein® 2.1 — the world's first plant protein to test with no measurable lead levels. The product also features a pure white color, grit-free texture, and dramatically improved solubility. A defining milestone in the history of plant protein.
