KEY DIFFERENTIATORS OF HI-FIBRE WF®

HI-FIBRE WF is a natural plant fiber system developed to stabilize oil-in-water emulsions, functioning as an emulsifier and stabilizer across a wide range of food applications. Furthermore, this solution enables Clean Label formulation, enriches dietary fiber content, and supports fat reduction in final products.

100% Plant-Based Fiber

Composed of familiar plant fiber sources, HI-FIBRE WF is not a novel ingredient, but a synergistic blend of plant-derived polysaccharides engineered to deliver effective oil-in-water emulsion stability.

Fat Binding in the Gel Matrix

Owing to its specially processed plant fiber structure, HI-FIBRE WF exhibits strong water-binding and fat-absorption capacities within the gelled matrix, thereby contributing to oil-in-water emulsion stability and enhancing product texture.

Evaluation Summary
Comparative data clearly demonstrates significant formulation improvements, meeting key health-conscious food development standards:

  • Saturated Fat Reduction: Saturated fat content from palm fat is reduced significantly from 12% to just 2%.
  • Increased Healthy Fats: Unsaturated fat increases from 13% to 18%.
  • Doubled Fiber Content: Dietary fiber content increases significantly from 1.7% to 3.5%.
  • Caloric Reduction: Total energy is lowered from 433 kcal to 408 kcal.

Oil Separation Control and Texture Enhancement

Trials conducted on Pesto Sauce and Bolognese Sauce demonstrated that HI-FIBRE WF® helps stabilize oil-water systems, minimize oil separation, and increase product viscosity.

  • Pesto Sauce (1–1.5%): Prevented oil separation and syneresis, maintaining structural stability even on an inclined surface.
  • Bolognese Sauce (0.5–1%): Significantly reduced surface oiling and phase separation, resulting in a more homogeneous sauce.
  • Processing conditions: Pesto requires 2–5% additional water and medium-to-high shear mixing, while Bolognese requires only gentle mixing.

→ Result: HI-FIBRE WF® provides an effective solution for controlling oil separation and improving the stability, viscosity, and texture of high-fat sauces.
