Tate & Lyle Launches Soluble Gluco Fiber in EU
PROMITOR SGF70L offers European food and beverage manufacturers a dietary fiber that is well tolerated and provides clean label benefits. The ingredient is suitable for markets and applications that require fibers made from non-GM maize and will initially be available in liquid form.
Oct 21 2011 --- Tate & Lyle has announced the start of European manufacturing of a new soluble fiber, PROMITOR Soluble Gluco Fiber. This comes just 18 months after the start-up of the STA-LITE Polydextrose line in Koog, The Netherlands. By expanding its capacity to manufacture a range of different soluble fibers, Tate & Lyle reiterates its commitment to respond to growing consumer demand for products with health and wellness benefits.
PROMITOR Soluble Gluco Fiber is an extension of the PROMITOR dietary fiber product line which has proved popular with Tate & Lyle’s North and Latin American customer base. PROMITOR SGF70L offers European food and beverage manufacturers a dietary fiber that is well tolerated and provides clean label benefits. Its process and acid stability enables manufacturers to develop new, healthier versions of a wide range of food and beverage products at a moderate cost-in-use. The ingredient is suitable for markets and applications that require fibers made from non-GM maize and will initially be available in liquid form.
Jerome Tauzin, Product Manager Health & Wellness comments: “We are excited to introduce PROMITOR to our customers in Europe and other GMO-sensitive markets. European consumers are increasingly interested in label-friendly ingredients, and our consumer research indicates Soluble Gluco Fiber delivers on those trends.”
The product will debut at the Food Ingredients Europe exhibition in Paris next month.
