Chemical-free microbial reduction process

IntegriPure is the supplier's chemical-free microbial reduction process. It effectively reduces microorganisms while protecting the integrity and functionality of ingredients. The IntegriPure system is an effective alternative to irradiation and other pasteurization technologies. The system evenly distributes dry, saturated steam heat for consistent pasteurization, and the quick-cooling vacuum ensures ingredient stability and quality.  The optional process provides validation for a 5-log reduction.

Natural preservatives extend oil life

Extend the shelf life of frying oils with the company’s natural preservative formulation, which combats oxidation, thermal degradation and hydrolytic rancidity. The formulation is GMO-free, oil-soluble and vegan and enables a clean label. The formulation also helps manufacturers get more frying out of their oils by slowing down the oxidative degradation due to reuse, thus keeping the oil safe for an increased number of product batches per liter of oil.

Tomato extracts add umami and kokumi

It’s no accident that tomatoes are a pantry staple; they have a unique ability to bring out other flavors while also adding richness and depth to dishes. Both umami and kokumi characteristics have been isolated from the tomato to create concentrated Sante, which enhances taste, reduces the need for salt, and is even able to stand in place of other artificial flavoring agents. The ingredient also is Non-GMO, Certified Kosher (OU) and Certified Halal (IFANCA).

Ovaprox offers substantial replacement levels in various applications that allow manufacturers to remain competitive.

The oil, joining the supplier's Clear Valley portfolio, is the product of a canola hybrid, which was developed through traditional breeding methods, with a focus on club root and black leg disease resistance, as well as strong yield performance. First deliveries of the oil will reach customers in early 2018.

Zero-calorie sweetener

Sunett acesulfame potassium (ace-K) is an artificial sweetener that is 200 times sweeter than sugar and is said to have a pure taste without any lingering aftertaste. Available in four different pharmaceutical and food grades, the ingredient is ideal for beverages, especially soft drinks; flavored water; cocktails; sport and energy drinks; dairy products such as yogurt and smoothies; baked goods; and confectionery products. The sweetener can be customized and blended to specific formulation requirements for no-calorie solutions.

Low-sugar glucose syrups

Reduce the amount of sugar on labels with Versasweet, a line of low-sugar glucose syrups. They allow manufacturers of confectionery, dairy, ice cream and baked good products to achieve reduced grams of sugar by formulating with low-sugar corn- or tapioca-based glucose syrups that, compared to standard glucose syrups, have a lower percentage of mono- and disaccharides (DP1 + DP2). Low viscosity and non-GMO versions are also available. The syrups can offer a 50 percent or higher reduction of DP1 + DP2, depending on the glucose syrup being replaced. The range of ingredients is about one-third as sweet as sucrose. It is said to have a clean-taste and similar functionality to traditional glucose syrups and is stable when exposed to heat and acid, with a low Maillard reactivity. Depending on the syrup chosen, it can be labeled as glucose syrup, corn syrup or tapioca syrup. Ingredion; Westchester, Ill.; 800-713-0208; www.ingredion.us
