    Features & Benefits

    Product Highlights

    Meatagar has a high tolerance to sterilization conditions and for this reason it is the best choice for food preparations of shelf-stable products where strong thermal processes are employed.

    In canned products it helps to protect the proteins and other food components from denaturation and to promote stability and homogenous texture during storage, reducing the shrinkage caused by the cooking/sterilization process.
