Ingredients for Plant-Based Foods
At De Wit Speciality Oils we are constantly looking at ways to innovate in order to supply high-quality vegetable oils that are rich in omega-3 and omega-6. As a leading company in the field of speciality oils, we now also focus on ingredients for plant based foods. We focus on this in order to achieve the best possible fatty acid composition for the oil-blend used for the production of plant based Meat-alternatives and Seafood-alternatives.
Omega-3 and Omega-6 enrichment for Plant-Based Foods
We can already offer the following range of high-level omega-3 Oils for plant-based meat- and seafood alternatives:
Due to our focus on plant based foods we will also be able to offer Protein-Concentrates by the end of 2021.
Specialty Protein Ingredients:
- Flaxseed, Pumpkin and Hemp (available December 2021)
- Oat and Rosehip (available Q3 2022)
In addition we are working on a ground-breaking project focusing on bio-based solvent extraction. Solvent-based extraction of vegetable oil is an essential step for many plant-based products, especially for vegetable oils and proteins from special flower seeds. We are very excited to be able to take you along with us through this journey.
Solvent-based extraction: new products for plant-based foods
We are looking forward to introducing and developing our new ingredients for plant-based foods from protein and fibers, by using a safe and effective solvent-based extraction method. We are able to use a 100% bio-based solvent as a green alternative to hexane for the development of ingredients. These new ingredients can be implemented in innovative plant-based food concepts.
