Functional Proteins

Demand for plant protein is strongly rising, a tendency driven by an increased interest in proteins thanks to their nutritional profile and an expected shortage of animal proteins in future due to a continuously growing global population.

BENEO offers high quality vital wheat gluten that is already broadly applied, especially in bakery, but also in meat and other applications. 

BENEO's textured wheat gluten has a stable texture, neutral taste and flavour. It is therefore a delicious and affordable source of protein suitable in a wide range of vegetarian applications, such as burger patties, nuggets, sausages, ready-meals, or for partial meat replacement.
Lastly, BENEO's faba bean protein is specifically known for their high solubility and good emulsifying properties. It boosts the protein content in a variety of plant-based food and drinks, such as baked goods, protein bars, extruded cereals and dairy alternative drinks or desserts.
