Ingredient guide The basics about our range of high functional protein solutions for the meat industry
Best-in-class high functional proteins The high functional proteins presented here add to the yield, the eating experience and the appearance of injected and reformed meat products. For you as a food manufacturer, this translates into improved yields, more consistent quality and less waste due to improved sliceability. For consumers, it means improved texture and an appealing product appearance with nicely cut, delicate slices – essential features when it comes to selecting one product over another.
The proteins are made from 100 % pork skin. They are processed using highly advanced technologies that concentrate the porcine protein through thermal and mechanical treatments. The strong gel-forming capacity of these high functional proteins enables users not only to improve the product performance, but also to boost the productivity. As well as a high level of protein and a low content of fat, these ingredients are neutral in taste and flavor. This makes them ideal for a wide range of applications.
ScanPro™ HI 95 This high functional pork protein is specially developed for use in high-quality whole hams, bacon and whole smoked and/or cooked products. It is intended for low extension products and is suitable for e.g., phosphate-free/low-phosphate products. ScanPro™ HI 95 is not cold setting and therefore very easy to work with.
ScanPro™ HI Premium This new high functional ingredient outperforms most alternative products in most cases. The unique gelling properties make it perfect for high injection meat products. The fine particle size increases dispersibility in brines making it suitable for any injection system. The fact that it is not cold setting adds to the solution's ease-of-use. *You might also consider ScanPro™ HI Premium Plus with an even finer particle size (99 % <100μ).
ScanPro™ T 95 The strong emulsifying properties and gel-forming capacity of ScanPro™ T 95 enable users not only to improve the product performance, but also to boost the productivity. As well as injected products, it is highly usable in emulsified products. When used in combination with other functional ingredients, ScanPro™ T 95 often has a beneficial synergistic effect.
