These highly specialized solutions are based on hydrocolloids and have been specifically designed to meet the individual needs of customers.

Functional systems are aimed at fulfilling specific functions in food products. Their primary goal is to enhance the quality, stability, and sensory properties of foods.

The added value of FARA®

FARA® Functional Blends are based on hydrocolloids and offer a wide range of benefits that can take your products to a higher level.

Hydrocolloids are a class of polysaccharides and proteins capable of forming viscoelastic solutions when dispersed in water or other solvents.

They can be of natural origin, such as pectin, guar gum, agar-agar, carrageenan, xanthan gum, and arabic gum, or synthetically produced, like some modified food gums.

Hydrocolloids are extensively used in the food industry due to their functional properties, including gelation, thickening, stabilization, and emulsification.

These properties make hydrocolloids essential in the production of various food products.

Moreover, hydrocolloids are frequently used to enhance the consistency, texture, stability, and quality of food products, contributing to providing a better sensory experience for consumers.

Thanks to their versatility and the multiple functions they can perform, hydrocolloids play a fundamental role in the formulation and development of high-quality foods.

FARA® Functional Blends are customized hydrocolloid solutions that offer a wide range of benefits to elevate your products to a higher level.
