Our range of SWELITE™ pea fibre is well-known for performing fibres and also for its nutritional content that have significant benefits for digestive health.

 

Produced by a gentle process that preserves all of its properties and unique functional benefits, our SWELITE™ pea fibre meets all the challenges faced by industries , such as processability, and also the demand from the consumer, such as the texture.

 

The SWELITE™ range consists of two pea fibre references, which are distinguished by different physical and functional characteristics. Enough to cover a wide field of application with very specific requests: texture improvement, cohesion contribution or compatibility for brines of injections. With new emerging consumer trends, many opportunities are opening up for pea fibre.

 

Because of its thicker grain size and higher water retention, the SWELITE™ C pea fiber reference is positioned in restructured products, or containing larger components. While SWELITE™ F is equipped with a grain size adapted to certain specificities of salt applications, such as for injection brines.
