Upcycled citrus,
powerful functionality

Citrus Fibers are plant-based ingredients derived from the peels of citrus fruits such as oranges and limes. They are gaining popularity across industries due to their multifunctional properties, including water retention, emulsification, gelling, and texture enhancement. Produced through the upcycling of citrus side streams, they offer a sustainable solution while supporting circular economy principles. Citrus Fibers enable clean-label formulations that meet growing consumer demand for natural and sustainable ingredients. Prodalim’s Citrus Fibers deliver multifunctional performance across food, beverage, cosmetics, and animal nutrition applications.

Direct access to the
freshest raw materials

In Prodalim Brazil, we use the freshest oranges, limes and lemons to create high quality NFCs but also concentrates and purees. Thanks to our direct access to the fruits and state-of-the-art processes, we can use all that nature provides: citrus fibers, fruit cells, as well as oils, distillates and other side streams to engineer first-class ingredients for our fruit blends and compound solutions.
