Aminola B.V. Rice germ is full of healthy nutrients and a source of plant-based proteins (22% on dry basis) and essential fats (24% on dry basis). Rice germ also contains various natural vitamins and minerals, such as high concentrations of vitamin B, vitamin E, magnesium and manganese. The rice germs are first separated from the rice, then stabilized by heating. After grinding, a light-yellow fine powder is left with the characteristic aroma and flavor of rice.

Aminola B.V. Quinoa flakes are a healthy source of gluten-free carbohydrates, and rich in protein (11% typical value). The quinoa is first cleaned, mechanically scarified, washed, disinfected, dried, pre-cooked, selected and graded. The white quinoa is then pressed. This creates flat, cream-colored flakes, with the characteristic flavor and aroma of quinoa.

Aminola B.V. Tapioca (Cassava) starch is a carbohydrate product that is very rich in native starch. It also has excellent binding properties. Tapioca (Cassava) starch is extracted from the roots of the cassava plant. The roots are first cleaned, grinded, then air-dried. The starch is then washed from the material, and dried again. The result is a fine white powder with a characteristic flavor and aroma. Tapioca (Cassava) starch can be modified in many ways to influence its properties.

Aminola B.V. Guar gum powder is a valuable carbohydrate product with excellent binding properties. Guar gum is a side stream product of the processing of dried guar seeds. It is located around the germ of these seeds. The guar seeds are roasted during production, after which the gum is mechanically separated and grinded into a powder. The roasting and grinding determines the product’s specific properties, reduces anti-nutrional factors, and improves digestibility and flavor. The end product is an odorless fine powder (available in various grades of fineness) with an off-white color and characteristic flavor.

Aminola B.V. Faba bean flour contains a high proportion of proteins and carbohydrates, making it an excellent source of amino acids and energy. It is being produced by dry grinding shelled and cleaned faba beans. The result is a creamy- to yellow colored flour with the characteristic flavor and aroma of faba beans.

Aminola B.V. Faba bean starch is a protein-rich starch with excellent binding properties thanks to its high amylose content. Faba bean starch is made by dry grinding shelled and thoroughly cleaned faba beans, after which the protein-rich part is mechanically separated from the starch-rich part. The result is a creamy- to yellow colored flour with the characteristic flavor and aroma of faba beans.
