Fosvitae® – The soluble fiber for clean label formulations

The future of nutrition is healthy, balanced, and “clean” – with less sugar, fewer calories, and more functional ingredients. With Fosvitae®, Nordmann, in collaboration with Spanish specialist Zukán, offers an innovative product family that meets precisely these requirements.

 Fosvitae® is a short-chain oligofructose (FOS), a natural, highly soluble fiber syrup obtained by enzymatic conversion of sugar from sugar cane or sugar beet. The products are characterized by their plant origin, high fiber density, and a sweetness level of 30–50% of sucrose—ideal for low-calorie, clean-label recipes.

Versatile – from yogurt to pet food

Fosvitae® is enjoying growing popularity as a sugar and fat substitute in the food industry. It is ideal for: 

  • Yogurts and plant-based drinks
  • Baked goods and cereal bars
  • Pet food for dogs and cats

 

Thanks to its mild, sweet taste and excellent solubility, Fosvitae® can be used in a wide range of applications without affecting taste or texture. Its hygroscopic properties are particularly impressive in bars, where they ensure a pleasant stickiness. 

Advantages of Fosvitae®

As a prebiotic fiber, Fosvitae® offers numerous health and technological benefits: 

  • Reduction of sugar and calories in recipes 
  • Promotion of beneficial intestinal bacteria such as Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus 
  • Improved digestion and nutrient absorption 
  • Creation of clean label formulations
