Asiros launches BERRYSHIELD

According to Asiros, consumers recognize and require berries as part of their daily healthy diet, going on to note that, for the industry, the reliable sourcing of high quality berry products containing bioactive components at the advertised levels is crucial. In order, the company says, to increase the general standard of berry powders and meet the transparency requirements of consumers, Asiros has introduced BERRYSHIELD berry powders. The BERRYSHIELD range of complete berry powders is claimed to offer a multitude of healthy, tasteful, colourful berry nutrients packed in a uniquely protective matrix as if they were still in the raw berry, ideal for both direct consumption, health supplements and as food & beverage ingredients.

The company will be showcasing the new products at HiE 2016, 29 November – 1 December 2016 in Frankfurt on the Breko stand.

Thanks to patent-pending processing technology, berry powders produced with the BERRYSHIELD technology are said to have a complete profile of berry nutrients and a unique protection of bioactive compounds such as polyphenols including flavonoids. The solvent-free BERRYSHIELD processing technology protects the berry compounds during processing, and the result is a range of highly stable berry powders. All BERRYSHIELD powders are free from maltodextrin, gluten, dairy, soy, colourings, flavourings and artificial sweeteners and can be used in a wide range of applications.

Asiros works exclusively with European sourced berries, and the supply chain is secured to the field with contracted farmers. Production is managed on an industrial scale by Asiros. BerryShield berry powders are said to be stable in wide range of application with uniquely improved taste, colour and nutritional content.
