Global nature-based ingredients company CP Kelco is excited to be launching NUTRAVA Citrus Fiber to the Australian market at the upcoming foodpro 2023 in Melbourne on 23-26 July.

Upcycled from citrus peels, a by-product of the juicing industry, NUTRAVA Citrus Fiber is a sustainably sourced fibre ingredient developed to meet formulators needs.

With shortages and rising prices impacting supplies, NUTRAVA Citrus Fiber supports the replacement or reduction of starch, egg, butter, and xanthan gum in formulations.

It also helps to extend tomato solids and fruit pulp in fruit applications for potential cost savings. 

NUTRAVA Citrus Fiber highlights:

  • Supports dietary fibre intake;
  • supports reduced-fat and reduced-sugar formulations;
  • supports gluten-free formulations;
  • supports water-binding, texturizing and stabilisation;
  • suitable for vegan formulations; and
  • compatible with standard manufacturing processes.

Join CP Kelco on Tuesday, 25 July at 1:30pm on the Product Innovation Stage for a 30-minute session on NUTRAVA Citrus Fiber.

Packaging News

In a collaborative effort, Kimberly-Clark Australia and Woolworths have successfully completed a packaging trial aimed at eliminating the use of secondary plastic packaging for Viva paper towels. The initiative, now set to become standard practice, is projected to save 15 tonnes of plastic annually.

John Cerini has stepped down as CEO of Pro-Pac, with Ian Shannon, who was chief operating officer of the company, taking over the role, and becoming managing director.

Sustainable packaging achievements were recognised at the APCO Annual Awards in Sydney last night. The event celebrated organisations, and individuals, driving change towards the 2025 National Packaging Targets and beyond. PKN was there.
