Product description
A NOVEL SOURCE OF TEXTURIZING & DIETARY FIBRES
FROM THE RED SEAWEED GRACILARIA
VERRUCOSA
Conventional processing of Red Seaweeds (Class Rhodophyta) focuses on the extraction of the water-soluble components – such as agar-agar,
whereas the water-insoluble components – consisting mainly of dietary fibres,
are usually discarded.
Now, applying newly developed technologies, both fiber components are
united in a mature, novel product basically consisting of highly functional fibers
and offering a good versatility in many applications:
OCEANFIBER
Seaweeds have been traditionally been recorded as part of the human
diet.
As such, oceanfiber does NOT require an E-Number, which would have been typical for Food Additives. This feature provides
the end-user with a high flexibility in formulation and labelling.
