The company focuses on functional ingredients that bring together nature and technology
São Paulo, August 2018 – A business unit of Sabará Group specializing in natural and technology-driven solutions for the food, beverage, animal nutrition, and veterinary pharmaceutical industries, Concepta Ingredients is presenting its latest launches at the 22nd Food ingredients South America (FiSA), taking place August 21–23 at the Transamerica Expo Center in São Paulo, Brazil.
“We will be presenting a comprehensive portfolio of ingredients designed to meet the most specific industry needs. With our strong investment in innovation and research, we offer solutions ranging from biodiversity-sourced ingredients to ingredients enhanced with technology,” says Lilia Kawazoe, Commercial Manager at Concepta Ingredients.
One of this year’s highlights is Biofrutose, a liquid muscovado sugar produced through organic farming practices. Made without additives or pesticides, this ingredient is known as whole cane sugar because it does not undergo refining, helping preserve the minerals and phytosterols naturally present in sugarcane. It also contains naturally occurring minerals such as calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and iron, as well as naturally occurring polyphenols.
Another new addition is the line of processed fruit products from the Italian company Cesarin, designed for use in breads, cakes, cookies, sandwich cookies, desserts, ice cream, chocolate, and other artisanal confections. Combining traditional methods with modern technology, the brand offers candied fruits, diced fruit, and fruit zest with low water activity, all retaining the characteristic structure and organoleptic properties of fresh fruit. The line includes natural Amarena cherries; wild berries and orange in syrup; diced and sliced Sicilian lemon and orange; and strawberry and apricot fillings with fruit pieces.
“We want to show the market that food can be healthier and more functional without sacrificing taste. To make this possible, we offer solutions that can be incorporated at different stages of the manufacturing process,” says Lilia Kawazoe.
In addition to these innovations, FiSA visitors will have the opportunity to explore Concepta Ingredients’ full portfolio, featuring products designed to meet the industry’s diverse needs. These include caramel specialties developed by French company Nigay, renowned for its expertise in caramelization. Available in syrup, flakes, powder, and viscous forms, these ingredients add flavor, aroma, and texture to finished products. Visitors can also discover the full range of stabilizers and emulsifiers from Belgian company Oleon.
