Question 1

What is Fooditive Preservative?

Accepted Answer

It is a plant-based, sustainable, and natural ingredient with preserving functions. It offers a clean label on food products and it is made from carrot side-streams.

Question 2

Why did we develop a plant-based preservative?

Accepted Answer

The need for the preservative came from the demand in the food industry for all-natural, plant-based ingredients that can offer a green label.

Our preservative is the solution to avoid synthetic preservatives and extend the shelf life of food products.

Question 3

How is it developed?

Accepted Answer

We extract the desired ingredients with the use of hot water and controlled pH measurement. Depending on the different sources we take our raw material from, we may apply some additional cleaning processes to ensure the carrot waste is ready to process more.   In the next step, we treat the carrot side-streams with water and our solution to make sure we removed all the pesticides. We heat and centrifugate the raw material to separate solids from liquids and obtain an insoluble component and a water-soluble pectin component. We add ethanol to the solution to extract all the pectin-component.   After this, we have second centrifugation, and we rinse the recovered material. The process is repeated until we have all the carrot extract we want. The preservative is air-dried to obtain the final product.

Question 4

How can I use Fooditive Preservative in my product?

Accepted Answer

It keeps the flavour and freshness of food products for longer, while it maintains the texture, taste, and quality of food products. The preservative is suitable for a variety of product applications including bakery, dairy, sauces, soups, cheese and frozen desserts.
