Kemin unveils solution to keep processed meat products fresh

Kemin Industries has launched a new food safety solution for processed meats, as it responds to consumer demands for products without artificial ingredients.

Called NaturCease Dry, the product is a clean-label combination of buffered vinegar and natural plant extracts developed to keep processed meat products safe and fresh.

Kemin said the one-stop solution controls spoilage bacteria while maintaining the bright red colour and fresh flavour of processed meat products. 

Anja Verbiest, customer laboratory services and quality assurance manager at Kemin Food Technologies – EMEA, said:  “Meat spoilage can be divided into two criteria: oxidative rancidity and microbial spoilage. Both have a sensory impact and an impact on colour, but, more importantly, microbial contamination affects meat safety.”

Kelly De Vadder, marketing manager at Kemin Food Technologies – EMEA, added: “Our NaturCease Dry solution offers a total freshness package. It’s user-friendly for customers and provides the needed convenience they seek.”

Headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa, Kemin has more than 2,800 employees globally and operations in 90 countries, including manufacturing facilities in Belgium, Brazil, China, India, Italy, Russia, Singapore, South Africa and the US.

Last year, the company launched a dedicated aquaculture division, offering clients a range of programmes which help improve water quality and enhance the immunity of aqua products.
