Profile
BENEO develops and produces high-quality functional ingredients derived from natural sources that support healthier and more sustainable food applications. Its portfolio enables manufacturers to create products that are tooth friendly, gluten- and lactose-free, fibre enriched, fat and sugar reduced, easily digested, energy sustaining and calorie smart, while maintaining excellent taste, texture and mouthfeel.
BENEO’s chicory root fibres, inulin and oligofructose, enable fat and sugar replacement while reducing calories without compromising sensory quality. As proven prebiotic fibres, they support digestive health and contribute to improved mineral absorption, helping to strengthen the body’s natural defences and overall well-being.
Orafti β-Fit offers scientifically supported beta-glucans from barley, which help maintain normal blood cholesterol levels and support heart health, allowing manufacturers to develop appealing products with clear nutritional benefits.
Isomalt is a tooth friendly, low glycaemic and low-calorie sugar replacer that enables the production of sugar-free confectionery and more. It replaces sugar in a 1:1 ratio, is low hygroscopic and enhances flavours and colours in finished products.
Isomaltulose (Palatinose) provides full carbohydrate energy (4 kcal/g) in a more balanced way, resulting in a low glycaemic response. It supports fat oxidation during physical activity, leading to a prolonged energy supply. In addition, it is non-cariogenic, acid stable and maintains stable osmolality in beverages.
BENEO offers plant-based proteins from faba bean and rice, enabling manufacturers to develop nutritious products with appealing texture and taste. These proteins support the growing demand for plant-based, allergen-friendly and sustainable food solutions.
BENEO’s rice ingredients further address the need for clean label, organic, gluten-free and hypoallergenic products, while improving mouthfeel, texture, crunchiness, shelf life and colour.
