Pea Proteins – Empro®

Protein ingredients play a major role in the food industry. Animal proteins such as gelatin, egg protein and dairy proteins have been successfully used in various food formulations. Due to the popularity of plant-based food and the attention to improving sustainability and reducing the carbon footprint of food, the interest in plant-based proteins is growing rapidly. The Emsland Group has developed a portfolio of pea protein isolates with different functionalities to support this growth. Empro® E 86 — Standard A versatile standard pea protein isolate with low viscosity and low solubility and reasonable emulsification performance.
