We supply natural ingredients with healthy active properties for the food and animal-feed industry. Our plant-based food and feed ingredients can also be integrated into formulae for food supplements, functional foods, capsules/tablets and other pharma- and nutraceutical products.

Nutrient-Rich Food and Feed Ingredients for Health and Texture

As a reputable food powder supplier, BioPowder.com is recognized for providing highly sought-after food ingredients by foodstuff manufacturers. Our ingredients are valued for their ability to enhance the energy and fibre content of performance foods/feeds, catering to the growing demand for nutritious and functional products. Specifically, our olive stone powder is a prime example of an ingredient that offers exceptional nutritional value. It is rich in sugars (carbohydrates) and contains cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose (fibres), all of which contribute to boosting the nutritional profile of food products.

One of the key advantages of olive stone powder is its versatility in formulation. It seamlessly integrates with grains, vegetables, and other conventional additives, allowing for easy incorporation into various recipes. This versatility empowers foodstuff manufacturers to create delicious and nutritious formulations that cater to the evolving preferences of consumers seeking healthier options. Furthermore, when finely micronized, our natural powders, including olive stone powder, serve as effective texturizers. They provide a desirable texture and consistency to a wide range of solid, viscous, and semi-liquid foods, enhancing the overall eating experience.

In contrast to many conventional flours, fruit stone powders, including olive stone powder, are free of wheat protein, making them suitable as anti-allergic food and feed ingredients. This characteristic makes them an excellent choice for individuals with gluten intolerance or allergies. Moreover, fruit stone powders are fully plant-based, aligning with vegetarian and vegan dietary preferences, and enabling manufacturers to cater to these growing consumer segments.

Thanks to their relatively neutral taste, fruit stone powders can be seamlessly incorporated into various food products. They serve as valuable sources of easily digestible fibres and antioxidants, enhancing the nutritional profile of baked goods, meat preparations, and vegan meat alternatives. With the inclusion of fruit stone powders, foodstuff manufacturers can create products that not only provide health benefits but also deliver great taste and texture.

BioPowder.com is committed to providing high-quality, versatile, and plant-based ingredients that inspire innovation in the food industry. We are dedicated to supporting foodstuff manufacturers in meeting the evolving needs and preferences of consumers, while also prioritizing nutritional value, allergy considerations, and taste appeal.

Smoking Chips for Food Flavouring

Pharmaceuticals and Dietary Supplements

Apart from being functional fillers in capsules or pills, certain fruit stones contain substances that are proven APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients), sometimes also referred to as natural actives.

Olive stones, argan shells, apricot kernels and avocado stones are proven active substances due to their high content of bioactive compounds with antioxidant properties. These include polyunsaturated fatty acids, polyphenolic (bio-phenols) as well as vitamins and amino acids/plant-based proteins.

Antioxidants protect the cells of the human and animal body by preventing the production of free radicals. This translates into anti-ageing effects besides the following benefits:

  • Boosting cardiovascular health
  • Prevention of cancer
  • Enhancement of vision and cognitive health
  • Prevention of arthritis
  • Reinforcement of the immune system
  • Reduction of infections, inflammation, and boost of overall vitality

Benefits for your application:

  • Availability: most of our ingredients are available throughout the year - both in bulk quantities as well as small volumes
  • Regulatory situation: our powders are agricultural raw materials, not finished foodstuffs. Olive stone flour is registered and approved according to GMP+
