How Are Leading Companies Shaping Citrus Seeds Market Trends?
Leading companies operating in the citrus seed market are developing innovative products, such as citrus fibers, to provide excellent functional benefits, including improved texture and stability in various food products. Citrus fiber is a natural fiber derived from the pulp and peels of citrus fruits, valued for its functional properties in food and beverage applications, such as enhancing texture, stability, and dietary fiber content. For instance, in January 2023, Fiberstar Inc., a US-based manufacturer of plant-based food ingredients, launched a new line of Citri-Fi 400 citrus fiber. Produced as a byproduct of the citrus juice process, the Citri-Fi 400 organic series combines both insoluble and soluble fibers with native pectin, offering outstanding water-holding and emulsification properties for a smooth mouthfeel. This dual function significantly improves the texture, stability, and nutritional value of food and beverage products, even at usage levels below 1%. USDA-certified organic, non-allergenic, gluten-free, and free of E-numbers, Citri-Fi 400 is also recognized as an organic source by the European Union, establishing it as a versatile and sustainable ingredient.
