Vegetable protein extrusion: design your production lines

 

For a few years now, the food industry has been offering an alternative to animal proteins through the extrusion of vegetable proteins. Cooking-extrusion allows us to add new textures to the proteins of the bean, pea or soy.

There are two main product families:

-Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) products that are dry and require rehydration before use.
-High Moisture Meat Analogue (HMMA). These products contain a lot of water and must be treated as fresh products.

The equipment of your production line will be specific to the product family.

A custom design of your production lines for extruded proteins.

Depending on the type of products you want to manufacture, the technical choices will not be the same.

TGC EXTRUSION has a know-how and a field experience that will allow us to best meet your expectations to design, optimize, modify your cooking-extrusion lines to:

– Meat analogues to reproduce textures of chicken, pork, beef, fish,

– Chunk and other TVP
