APro™ - series
APro™ is a range of single-source blood-based protein solutions, functional plasma and haemoglobin-based ingredients.
The series consists of:
- AProPork™
- AProThem™
- AProSan™
APro™ is developed for texture and yield improvement in meat applications. It can be used alone or in combination with other functional ingredients. These blood-based protein solutions help improve yield, texture, sliceability, and may be used to reduce purge – all while providing a clean label solution that consumers recognize and understand.
All APro™ products are derived from porcine (plasma or haemoglobin) and developed through an advanced technology of separation, concentration, hydrolysis and spray-drying.
