Appealing food


Our ingredients are not only interesting from a nutritional point of view. A number of the BENEO-products offer the petfood producer a clear technological advantage.

Vital wheat gluten are widely known for their visco-elastic properties and can be used no only to optimise the extrusion behaviour of the mixture, but also to form a cohesive matrix in semi-moist and canned petfoods.

Also BeneoCarb S can be used for its technological characteristics. As it is made up largely by reducing sugars, it has a potential to be used to fine-tune Maillard-reactions and to change the organoleptical profile of the end-product.

In the BENEO range there are a number of ingredients (rice starches and prebiotics) which can be used to mimic the creamy, rheological aspects of fat in semi-moist and canned petfoods.
