Sub4Salt® by Jungbunzlauer: A revolution in sodium reduction

With health and nutrition playing an increasingly important role in today's world, the reduction of sodium in food is a hot topic. With Sub4Salt®, Nordmann partner Jungbunzlauer has developed an innovative solution that makes it possible to significantly reduce the sodium content in food without affecting its taste.

What is Sub4Salt®?

Sub4Salt® is a patented mineral salt blend consisting of sodium chloride, potassium chloride and sodium gluconate. This combination makes it possible to reduce sodium content by up to 50% while maintaining the functionality and taste of the end products. Potassium chloride replaces some of the sodium chloride, while sodium gluconate masks the potassium chloride off-notes, thereby ensuring a good taste profile. This is particularly important as many consumers prefer the taste of regular salt..

Benefits of Sub4Salt®

Sub4Salt® can be used as a 1:1 replacement for regular salt, making it easy to incorporate into existing recipes.

Health benefits

Reducing sodium intake can have a positive impact on health, particularly in relation to high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease.

Wide range of applications

Sub4Salt® can be used in many areas of the food industry. It is used in baked goods, dairy products, snacks, meat products and ready meals. In the meat industry in particular, Sub4Salt® cure, a special blend with sodium nitrite, offers the advantages of sodium reduction while maintaining the technological functionalities of a curing salt.

Legal aspects

Sub4Salt® consists exclusively of ingredients that are approved in accordance with European food and food additive regulations. In the USA, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has recognized the components of Sub4Salt® as generally safe (GRAS).

Sub4Salt® from Jungbunzlauer is an excellent solution for reducing sodium in foods. With its ability to lower sodium by up to 50% without affecting taste, the product offers consumers a healthier alternative and manufacturers an easy way to comply.
