Corbion to feature multidimensional preservation solutions at Gulfood Manufacturing 2023

Corbion, the global leader in lactic acid, lactic acid derivatives, and nature-based preservation technologies, known for its expertise in food preservation, will showcase its broad portfolio of multifunctional, nature-based preservation solutions at Gulfood Manufacturing, 7 to 9 November in the Dubai World Trade Center. Visitors to the Corbion booth (Hall 8, Stand 821) can learn how the company uses a variety of vinegars, ferments and plant-based antioxidants, in addition to lactic acid-based ingredients, to protect foods from pathogens and spoilage organisms without compromising flavor, texture or other aspects of the consumer’s eating experience.

“There are many things food manufacturers care about preserving in their products,” said Dr. Mostafa Karzazi, Corbion’s director of Sales for Middle East and Africa. “Controlling threats to food safety and spoilage is critical, yes. But to the people who buy and consume those products, flavor, texture, color and aroma also matter very much. Corbion preservation solutions take those aspects of product quality into account, too. State-of-the-art preservation technologies can now provide more holistic protection for the things that matter to our customers and their customers.”

Corbion’s all-around approach to preservation focuses on meeting the needs of manufacturers in an array of food industry segments, including meat and poultry, where Corbion solutions help processors protect their products from pathogen risks, as well as spoilage organisms that shorten shelf life and increase food waste by compromising product aroma, color and texture. In refrigerated foods, as well as sauces, dressings and condiments, the company’s ingredient portfolio preserves product freshness and integrity longer. Corbion’s formulation expertise also enables its customers to reduce sodium content without losing the functionality that salt provides. Corbion also offers solutions for acidification and mineral fortification deliver value in dairy applications.

In bakery products, Corbion has played a lead role in helping customers achieve quality and shelf life goals in their fresh-baked goods, including the use of effective, natural mold inhibitors. Corbion solutions also help confectioners achieve a combination of sourness and longer shelf life meeting key customers demands. In each of these industries, Corbion helps reduce product and resource waste, creating more sustainable value chains.

Gulfood attendees will also have the chance to learn about benefits beyond these ingredient solutions provided by Corbion, including access to assistance from experienced technical staff and online advanced predictive modeling tools that help identify and implement the right ingredient solutions quickly and effectively.

“Our goal is always to preserve what matters to our customers and to the consumers they want to attract,” Dr. Karzazi added. “Being able to do that effectively starts when we have the opportunity to listen to our customers to understand their goals and the challenges they must overcome to meet those goals. We look forward to many productive conversations at Gulfood and to identifying customer specific nature-based preservation solutions.”
