Product description

It is made from organic wheat gluten, wholemeal wheat groats, wheat bran and sea salt. The brown extruded granules offer a bite-resistant texture and contain no artificial additives.

For industrial product development, Organic Vegetex is particularly relevant for plant-based meat alternatives, savoury convenience foods, fillings, casseroles and other formulations where structure and protein enrichment are required. Its granular format can help manufacturers create a more substantial eating experience while maintaining a straightforward organic ingredient profile. Product specifications, samples and packaging options are available for formulation and scale-up projects.

“Organic Vegetex combines a firm granular structure with high protein content, making it an interesting ingredient for manufacturers developing plant-based and savoury food concepts where bite and texture are important.”

Wheat extrudate for meat alternatives

Organic Vegetex is a protein-rich wheat extrudate for food manufacturers developing plant-based meat alternatives, savoury convenience foods and other structured food products. Made from organic wheat gluten, wholemeal wheat groats, wheat bran and sea salt, the extruded granules provide a firm, bite-resistant texture and a straightforward ingredient profile without artificial additives. This makes Organic Vegetex particularly relevant for formulations where structure, bite and protein enrichment need to work together in industrial food production.

Depending on the required texture and product concept, manufacturers can evaluate Organic Vegetex alongside other functional ingredients. wheat protein texturate offers a more strongly texturised wheat-protein option for meat analogue formulations, while textured soy mince is suitable for plant-based mince, burgers and other meat substitute concepts. For cereal-based extruded structures, wheat bran sticks provide an additional wheat-based format. We support food manufacturers with product selection, technical information, samples and suitable packaging options for scalable production.
