Our
Pea Fiber
Portfolio
Straightforward, insoluble fiber from the outer hull
Pea hulls are a clean, recognizable source of insoluble dietary fiber from North American yellow peas. They are a practical choice when you want functional fiber with a simple label statement.
Primary benefits:
- Supports digestive wellness and consistent stool quality
- Helps dilute calories for weight management and satiety-focused formulas
- Adds structure and bite in extruded and baked applications
Best-fit formats: kibble, extruded treats, biscuits, wet food, fresh, and animal feed.
Performance notes: ideal for formulas that need a dependable insoluble fiber source; particle size and inclusion level can be tuned to support texture goals.
Milled for consistent dispersion and controlled texture
Milled pea fiber starts with pea hulls, then is processed to a more consistent particle size for improved handling and uniform mixing. It is designed to help you hit fiber targets with fewer process surprises.
Primary benefits:
- More consistent particle size for uniform blending and reduced segregation
- Improved dispersion for even fiber enrichment across the finished product
- Controlled texture modification to support bite, structure, and appearance
- Higher bulk efficiency for better shipping and storage practicality
Best-fit formats: kibble, dry treats, baked treats, wet food systems needing fiber consistency, fresh applications, and feed.
Performance notes: a strong option when you need predictable mixing behavior across lots, plus reliable texture outcomes during extrusion, baking, or blending.
Next-generation functionality with hydrocolloid-like behavior
Internal pea fiber is derived from the inner cell wall material of the pea and is being developed to deliver unique water-binding behavior. It is designed to support formulas that need improved binding and moisture management without adding gums.
Primary benefits:
- Natural hydrocolloid-like behavior for water binding and moisture retention
- Helps support cohesion and bite in challenging, high-meat or low-starch systems
- Can contribute to improved handling of dough or mix during processing
Best-fit formats: kibble and fresh applications where binding and water management are critical, plus select wet systems.
Performance notes: this ingredient is under development and not yet available as a standard commercial product.
