In a world where consumers are reading labels more carefully than ever, the demand for clean label food solutions continues to rise. People want to know what they\u2019re eating \u2014 and they want to feel good about it. But while shoppers seek transparency, food producers face a more complex challenge: delivering cleaner labels without sacrificing functionality, texture, or taste.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clean label is more than a trend \u2014 it\u2019s a shift in the way food needs to be developed. That\u2019s why the Emsland Group\u2019s approach goes beyond supplying clean label ingredients. Through hands-on application support, recipe development, and in-house testing at our Innovation Center, we help our customers create successful, consumer-friendly products \u2014 faster and more effectively.<\/em> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Does \u201cClean Label\u201d Mean Today?<\/strong>
\u201cClean label\u201d typically refers to products made with ingredients that are perceived as natural, familiar, and minimally processed. This includes removing or replacing synthetic additives, E-numbers, and modified starches with recognizable alternatives \u2014 without compromising product quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The market is growing quickly. Consumers are choosing foods that feature simple, understandable ingredient lists. But switching to clean label solutions isn\u2019t always straightforward. Functional ingredients like stabilizers or thickeners are often critical to product performance, and removing or replacing them requires expertise.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Emsland Group\u2019s Clean Label Solutions<\/strong>
To meet this challenge, the Emsland Group offers the Empure\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong> product line \u2014 a clean label range made from potato and pea-based raw materials. Empure\u00ae<\/sup><\/strong> products provide natural texture and taste, and are specifically designed to replace products with E-numbers, such as modified starches and potato flakes, in various applications. Additional clean label ingredients available from the Emsland Group include proteins, fibers and granules. This versatility provides the flexibility to combine ingredients to achieve the desired characteristics in the end product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Emsland Group\u2019s clean label products are not chemically modified and are suitable for vegan, gluten-free, and allergen-conscious applications. They provide excellent functionality for various food applications in a wide range of segments and are made from renewable raw materials sourced from regional agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
