Today’s consumers want foods that deliver lasting fullness, steady energy and nutritional balance, without sacrificing taste or texture. That demand is driving a powerful shift toward protein enrichment, dietary fibre and sustained nourishment - done right.
FABAFuel® ingredients are made for this shift.
Derived from 100% faba beans, FABAFuel® delivers great tasting protein concentrate, starch flour and fibre. Developed with both functionality and sensory performance in mind, FABAFuel® helps food developers create protein enhanced and fibre-dense foods people actually love to eat - while maintaining clean label and formulation performance.
FABAFuel® makes it possible to build balanced, satisfying nutrition directly into everyday meals and snacks. The result is food that fuels healthier lifestyles with taste, texture and performance that stand up in the real world - not just on the label.
As fuel for a healthier future all of our ingredients are:
Clean taste. Smart Nutrition. Measurable ROI.
FABAFuel® protein concentrate delivers a strong amino acid profile and natural micronutrients in a format that’s clean tasting, smooth and easy to work with. Its neutral sensory profile makes it ideal for products where taste and texture matter most:
• Plant-based meat or meat extenders
• Egg replacement
• Alternative dairy yogurts, cheese, ice cream
• Baked goods, breads, tortillas, desserts
• Extruded snack or cereals
• Spreads, sauces, dips
• Functional beverages
FABAFuel® protein helps manufacturers boost protein and fibre content, improve yield and manage formulation costs while delivering products consumers actually enjoy.
One ingredient – so many applications!
FABAFuel® starch flour bridges the gap between traditional flour functionality and refined starch performance. It delivers natural binding, thickness and structure, similar to flour, while offering the clean flavour release, smooth texture and consistency expected from a starch. This makes it especially effective in baked goods, baking mixes, extruded snacks, sauces, dressings and meal solutions where body and flavour balance matter.
Beyond food, its functional properties are also unlocking innovative applications in textiles and biodegradable materials, extending value well beyond the plate.
From protective layer to productive ingredient.
Faba hulls are the natural outer layer of the bean, removed prior to dry milling and increasingly valued for what they deliver next. When processed, faba fibre performs similarly to pea fibre, offering a highfibre, insoluble solution with growing appeal across food and feed applications.
In formulations, FABAFuel® fibre supports structure, moisture management and fibre enrichment, making it a practical option for digestive-friendly, fibre-forward food, pet food and feed products.
Beyond food, the hull's natural nutrient profile and soil conditioning properties make it well suited for chemical free agricultural use, supporting soil health and improved crop performance.
C-Merak ingredients are ideally suited for a wide range of nutritionally balanced and sustainable applications. The natural characteristics of Faba ingredients can support flavour, texture and colour profiles to meet diverse global preferences.
