At Extracta, we’re redefining natural functionality with AusCitriFbr™, an innovative citrus fibre made from upcycled Australian citrus peels.
AusCitrFbr is a citrus fibre renowned for its exceptional thickening and water retention capabilities, remaining stable across varying temperatures and pH levels. These properties have proven highly beneficial in the meat industry, enhancing cooking yields, controlling drip loss, and improving the cohesiveness and natural texture of products.
Beyond meat applications, AusCitrFbr is utilised to reduce certain ingredients, such as fat or egg, maintain product shape during processing, stabilise emulsions, and prevent fat or oil separation. It can also enhance texture or replace other additives and ingredients in final formulations.
Industries including fruit processing, confectionery, bakery, and various dairy applications can all leverage the outstanding functional properties of this versatile fibre.
