NOIFERM Oat

NOIFERM Oat is a multifunctional, clean-label fermented ingredient made from side streams generated during oat beverage production. It gives these underused plant-based resources a new purpose, transforming them through a multi-microbial fermentation process into a versatile ingredient for food manufacturers.
NOIFERM Oat provides 40 g of protein per 100 g and is high in fibre, with 26 g per 100 g, including oat β-glucans that contribute to its fibre-rich profile. NOIFERM Oat can help enrich the nutritional profile of food products and can help lower the glycaemic index of the finished product, depending on the formulation. Its antioxidant functionality helps protect nutrients from degradation, while its natural preservation properties support freshness and shelf life, so one ingredient combines high protein and fibre content with natural preservation and antioxidant functionalities.

NOIFERM Oat is particularly relevant to bakery products, where it can contribute protein and fibre while supporting freshness, and to plant-based meat alternatives, where it can help increase protein and fibre content. Its performance should be assessed in each application. NOIFERM Oat is presented as Non-GMO and Not Novel Food.
