    Features & Benefits

    Product Features
    • Austrade’s sunflower protein is a genuine alternative for formulators seeking to use a plant-sourced protein containing all essential amino acids as well as neutral taste and odor.
    • Heliaflor® 55 contains almost no fat. Heliaflor® 55 is beige in color and has a relatively neutral taste. It is particularly suitable for products that require minimal off-flavor and little foreign coloring.
    • CO2 extraction processing - Additional CO2 extraction of this product variant reduces the fat content and simultaneously increases the protein content of the final product. This process leads to a higher fat binding capacity and a slightly weaker water binding capacity.
    • Contains min. 55% protein and 15% dietary fiber
    • Less than 2% fat
    • Features very good water (1:4) and fat binding capacities
    • Excellent emulsification properties
    • Allergen and Gluten Free
    Product Benefits

    Our whole food, mono-ingredient sustainable plant proteins offer the following benefits:

    • Contain all 9 essential amino acids
    • Gentle processing to retain the full functionality of the protein
    • Clean label - not hydrolyzed, solvent-free (no hexane)
    • Product specific taste
