Company Info
Company Description
AgriFiber is a commercial scale specialty ingredients manufacturer. Our proprietary separation and extraction technology (six patents) upcycles residual agricultural materials like corn bran and oat hull. We produce a portfolio of insoluble and soluble fiber ingredients that provide exceptional water holding, texturant, emulsification, binding and formulation extension properties. We operate out of 43,000 sq ft. commercial scale facility and currently sell a portfolio of five ingredients to over 25 customers. Our soluble fiber ingredients are non GMO, GRAS Certified (FDA no comment) prebiotic with two human clinical trials supporting our prebiotic claims. While corn and oat residuals source our current portfolio the separation and extraction technology is agnostic and can be used for variety of fiber residuals including kelp, beets, cranberry, hemp, cannabis and cassava (tapioca). Our ingredients can also be solutions for lowering oil content and fat reduction, extending food formulations in tomato based products and various sauces dips and dressings. Our prebiotic fibers allow for claims of good to excellent sources of fiber and the clinical studies indicate a contribution to weight loss thru increased satiety and a lowering of the glycemic index.
