Plant-Based Innovation: New Application Scenario of Silica for Quality Stabilization and Flavor Locking

The rapid rise of plant-based foods has opened up a brand-new application space for food grade silica.


The rapid rise of plant-based foods has opened up a brand-new application space for food grade silica. In plant protein beverages, 0.3% addition can resolve precipitation and layering issues of soymilk and oat milk, and product stability is improved to over 90%. In plant-based meat products, it can be used as a moisture retention agent to reduce water loss by up to 20% and improve the tenderness of the taste. Zhongqi's special product for plant-based foods, featuring a tailored mesoporous structure, can not only absorb excess oil, but also lock in plant protein flavor. It has adapted to the production needs of many international plant-based food brands, aligning with the global trend of healthy and sustainable consumption, and application demand is projected to grow by 50% over the next three years.
