Learn how it is used
Emulsified
When producing emulsified meat products, firmness, texture and improved yields are key factors. The impressive water binding capacity of our functional proteins can build strong emulsifying systems in the meat matrix. This gives a better texture and bite in end products and, at the same time, improves sliceability because of the elasticity coming from the collagen.
Dried and fermented
Revolutionize your dried meats with excellent functionality. Our protein solutions have exceptional capabilities that deliver excellent benefits for the production process. Whether products are injected or emulsified, the proteins ensure cost-effectiveness, great texture, and consistent quality. Perfect for pepperoni, salamis, dried meat sticks, and shelf-stable sausages.
Ground products
Our functional proteins can be added directly into the meat dough together with other ingredients, as a single ingredient or in a ready-to-use compound. They bind water and fat, enhancing ground meat systems—fresh, frozen, or cooked. Different versions of the ingredient are available to suit the required functionality resulting in improved texture, yield, product stability.
