BEYOND ACACIA®

Alland & Robert’s new Beyond Acacia® range is the fruit of over two years of research and development, with the aim of meeting market expectations and combining environmental exemplarity with technological excellence. The Beyond Acacia® range brings high-density granulometry to the table, enabling the creation of an innovative and sustainable range of gums.

This new range also showcases Alland & Robert’s commitments to the environment: The transformation used to make high-density granules produces a much lower volume of carbon emissions. The Beyond Acacia® range enables direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions to be reduced by 51.1% (scopes 1 + 2), and a reduction by 13.5% of emissions upstream and downstream in the value chain (scope 3).

Moreover, the Beyond Acacia® range’s improved solubility and dispersion capacity enables a reduction in energy use during the end user’s industrial process, as their production phase will require less time and energy to complete. The granules dissolve completely without being heated, even at high levels of concentration. The range new granularity ensures excellent hydration properties (superior to those of a standard gum), which maximize the efficiency of the dispersion process. The occurrence of foam during this process is reduced, as are quantities of particles, which also improves fluidity and reduces the occurrence of lumps. With Beyond Acacia®, the volume of acacia gum required to obtain a net weight of 100 grams is 32% lower than with an instant acacia gum, bringing additional carbon reductions in packaging, freight, storage and waste.

TASTE SAMPLES MANUFACTURED WITH SYNDEO® GELLING 

Finding plant-based substitutes to non-vegan gelling agents  can be a challenge if you’re looking for that perfect texture, sensory experience, hardness or resilience. During Food Ingredients Europe, come to our booth and taste vegan samples such as gummies, formulated with Syndeo® Gelling.

Composed of 100% natural and plant-based hydrocolloids and acacia gum, Syndeo® Gelling is ideal to substitute gelatin or other gelling agents in vegan formulations. Syndeo® Gelling offers a choice alternative for vegan candy recipes, mousses and healthy food supplements such as “gummies”. The combination of Syndeo® Gelling ingredients, 100% plant-based hydrocolloids, provides a compromise between gelatin and pectin. While gelatin provides high elasticity and reduced stickiness, pectin helps achieve firmer, stickier textures with little or even no elasticity. Syndeo® Gelling offers both low hardness and higher elasticity than pectin, without creating any stickiness.

Syndeo® Gelling offers a choice alternative for vegan candy recipes and health food supplements. This market, currently booming, is not immune to the quest for healthier products. Whether it is to adopt a vegetarian diet, out of concern for the environment, to combat intensive farming, or out of religious conviction, an increasing number of consumers are looking for products formulated with plant-based ingredients to substitute those of animal origin. This is one of the challenges facing the food industry, and in particular manufacturers of confectionery. Syndeo® Gelling provides an innovative and multifunctional solution.

NUTRITION AND HEALTH

Alland & Robert focuses on developing gum acacia ranges that have high nutritional value, high fiber content, help improve the nutrition of consumers, lower their glycemic index and have a positive impact on gut health.
Alland & Robert products are designed to answer specific nutrition needs such as vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, keto, no-gelatin or low-FODMAP diets. Alland & Robert recently announced that gum acacia received the FODMAP-friendly certification. In addition, gum acacia can be used as an ingredient in food formulations to help improve certain aspects that contribute to better nutrition, such as fiber enrichment or sugar and fat content reduction.

Alland & Robert works to explore all the possibilities of natural gums by carrying out research, hand in hand with all industrial sectors, in a virtuous model for the planet and humans alike.
