Food Ingredients
AUSTRION offers a comprehensive range of high-quality food ingredients. Our food ingredients provide functional solutions for a variety of food applications, ensuring both taste and performance benefits.
Starch Sources
Wheat Starch
Wheat starch is a versatile and functional ingredient made from high-quality wheat. This starch is commonly used in food and non-food applications, providing thickening, binding, and texturizing properties. Our wheat starch is carefully processed to ensure consistent quality and performance, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of industrial and food applications where this carbohydrate is needed.
Pea Starch
Pea starch is a plant-based ingredient made from high-quality peas.
With its high amylose content and low gelling temperature, this trendy starch concentrate provides excellent thickening and texturing properties in various food products.
It improves texture, increases cooking viscosity, and gels after temperature decrease. Ideal tenderizer in fat reduced meat products, a great snack or chips alternative.
This product is the lowest carbon foot print starch currently available hence superior for those seeking a truly sustainable and functional ingredient solution.
Corn Starch
Our non-GMO food grade native corn starches include functional native, pregelatinized and modified starches.
By incorporating non-allergen native corn starch in snack or convenience food recipes, you can produce exceptional products that adapt to specialty diets in modern lifestyles.
Parameters in water binding, viscosity in swelling dynamics, enzymatic conversion or retrogradation are of key importance. In non-food applications, such as for packaging and paper industry, bioplastic and 3D printing raw materials, proper starches are offered.
Potato Starch
As a versatile ingredient in the food industry, potato starch is known for its universal properties. Our carefully sourced, non-GM potato starch is made from the locally grown potatoes, ensuring consistent quality and performance in every batch. Its neutral taste won’t impact the flavor of your end products. With all year round supply, in combination with our non-allergen starches, we can help those enterprises who seek to improve in the field of non-allergen diet and commit to achieve real success in product development.
Waxy corn starch
Waxy corn starch is a modified starch that offers unique benefits for industrial applications. Waxy corn starch also provides increased viscosity stability, making it suitable for use in high-temperature processes such as canning and extrusion. With its consistent quality and reliable supply, waxy corn starch can help you streamline your production process and improve the quality and consistency of your end products.
Pregelatinized Starches
Pregelatinized starches are modified starches that offer a range of benefits for industrial applications. They are easily dispersible in cold water, providing a smooth texture and consistent viscosity in food and beverage products. Pregelatinized starches are also thermally stable, making them suitable for use in high-temperature processes such as canning and extrusion. With the improved functionality, pregelatinized starches can help improving the quality and consistency of your end products.
Protein Sources
Pea Protein
Pea protein is a versatile, plant-based ingredient that is rapidly gaining popularity in our today´s food nutrition.
Extracted without using chemical from yellow peas, pea protein is a high-quality source of protein that is rich in essential amino acids. Its clean label profile makes it a popular choice for use in a wide range of food applications, from meat alternatives to sports nutrition products. With consistent quality, reliable supply and competitive pricing, our pea protein is the ideal solution for modern human diet, even for our Pets!
Wheat Protein: Vital Wheat Gluten
Vital Wheat Gluten is a natural protein extracted from high quality food wheat.
A concentrated protein that is rich in essential amino acids. After hydration it forms a water-insoluble protein complex, characterized by excellent visco-elasticity properties and exceptional binding properties. It provides improved texture and increased moisture retention especially in baked goods, making it an ideal ingredient for bakery applications.
Thanks to its high water absorption capacity, it is used in a variety of food applications, increasingly in meat alternatives and sports nutrition products.
It is a premium protein ingredient in the Pet Food sector due to its excellent digestibility especially for young animals.
Potato Protein
Potato protein is an allergen free natural functional protein extracted from fresh potatoes. It is rich in easily digestible essential amino acids. Thanks to its excellent water binding properties, it improves texture and increases moisture retention.
We recommend this one of the purest premium product for feed applications, particularly Piglet Feed and Pet Food, where the digestibility and its neutral taste profile are key factors.
Sweeteners
Organic & Conventional Sweeteners
We provide a wide range of efficient starch sweeteners, liquid or dry, upon the preference in various sweetener profiles, sugar spectrum, mouthfeel, viscosity or crystallization. Many of them are organic and bio certified.
Tailor made versions stretch from light sweet DE6 (DE=Dextrose Equivalent) to intensive tasting DE99, Glucose or high sweet Fructose syrups.
You can consult with us on optimizing taste and calories or managing cost challenges. Whatever taste profile you look for, we can advise an appropriate formulation for your recipe, bringing our expertise in flavoring to your success.
