SPACEFOOD

Since 2007, Tiberino has been developing and producing Italian meals for astronauts involved in space missions aboard the International Space Station.

A unique experience that led us to study how food can influence not only the body, but also the mind, concentration, and the ability to perform under extreme conditions.

Because in space — just like during a trek, a sailing crossing, an expedition, or any intense outdoor activity — nutrition is never just a detail.

The wrong meal can slow you down.
It can weigh you down.
It can reduce focus, energy, and recovery capacity.

OUTFOOD was born from these principles.

The first Made in Italy line of dehydrated outdoor meals developed by applying the same principles used to design food for astronauts: nutritional balance, lightness, practicality, natural long shelf life, and easy digestibility.

Working on nutrition for extreme environments taught us how essential digestibility is during prolonged or intense physical activity.

That is why many OUTFOOD recipes use plant-based proteins as their primary protein source.

The reason is simple: compared to many animal proteins, plant proteins generally allow for lighter and more efficient digestion, helping the body maintain steady energy and focus while avoiding heaviness and improving performance.

When facing hours of trekking, cold, wind, fatigue, or demanding operational activities, there is no room for improvised nutrition.

Every ingredient must help you stay active, sharp, and responsive.

But OUTFOOD was not created simply as technical food, because food has a value that goes far beyond basic nutrition — as studies conducted in microgravity have clearly demonstrated.

A concept Italians have known for centuries: eating well makes you feel better, mentally as well.

Research conducted on nutrition aboard the Space Station has shown that under conditions of stress and isolation, food has an enormous impact on morale, concentration, and psychological comfort.

That is why we chose to combine nutritional functionality with gourmet cuisine.

Every OUTFOOD recipe is designed to deliver the right balance of taste, energy, lightness, and practicality, using natural ingredients and authentic Italian recipes.

Meals that are lightweight to carry.
Easy to prepare.
Balanced for extreme environments.
But above all, genuinely enjoyable to eat.

Add water.
Wait a few minutes.
And wherever you are, you will have a real Italian meal — nutritionally efficient and ready to enjoy.

From space to nature.
The same nutritional philosophy developed for those who face extreme conditions.
