Abstract Because the world population will reach 9 billion people until 2050 and natural resources are finite, Europe needs resources: biological renewable for food and also petfood, safe and healthy, for materials, energy and other products. Wastes arising from the manufacture of food supplements are currently used for animal feed. The innovative idea was to valorise the important content in bioactive compounds in these by-products, which can thus be placed in category of functional ingredients. Technological research is carried out on two directions, with interrelated aspects: research focus on the production of flour enriched in bioactive compounds of plant origin and technological objectives on production of new bakery products, using the functional flours, for the market of the healthy food, with expectable impacts on the wellbeing of: different health problems, athletes, vegetarian population. The main activities of our research team were to: define the requirement of the developed ingredientes and products studying their benefit to nutrition and health people; develop recipes for obtaining wheat flours and bakery products enriched in biologically active compounds. Also our researtch work supposed to check the experimental conditions needed in order to obtain a maximum functional potential of the final bakery products, evaluation of the market segment and developing the technical documentation.
