Traditionally, antioxidants serving the food industry have included synthetic options such as Butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), or Tertiary-Butylhydroquinone (TBHQ). As consumers begin to read and better understand ingredient labels, food products lacking synthetic ingredients are desired. With this change in consumer preference, an increase for consumer-friendly solutions to replace traditionally used synthetic antioxidants is needed.
FORTIUM® MT, a robust line of tocopherol based, plant-derived antioxidants, is effective at protecting a variety of food applications from color and flavor degradation. Our plant-derived antioxidants have shown to be especially efficacious in extending the shelf life of food products with high fat/oil content. FORTIUM MT provides a desirable alternative to time-tested synthetic antioxidants. This plant-derived antioxidant is applicable in a wide range of food products. Mixed tocopherols have good solubility in fats and oils and are heat stable ingredients with no sensory impact making them easy to work with in many food applications.
With the inclusion of tocopherols in foods, manufacturers benefit from the increased relative freshness of their product provided by FORTIUM MT’s ability to extend shelf life to yield high quality manufactured foods without flavor contributions.
Typical applications of FORTIUM MT include:
- Cereals
- Instant Noodles
- Lard
- Marine Oils
- Mayonnaise
- Meat and Poultry Products
- Nuts
- Salad Dressings
- Spices
- Vegetable Oils
FORTIUM® MT is offered in both liquid and dry formulas, as well as in blends with other plant-based extracts, for easy incorporation into your products’ processing needs.
