Where is Hydrolyzed pea protein used?
- Food manufacturing: plant-based foaming and emulsifying agent in whipped toppings, meat analogues and protein-fortified beverages
- Personal care: moisture retention and film formation in hair conditioners, shampoos and skin creams
- Animal feed: improved protein digestibility and palatability, notably in early-life nutrition for livestock and aquaculture
- It also acts as a binder and texturizer in plant-based processed food systems.
Good to know: Protein content and degree of hydrolysis vary by grade, so supplier specification sheets are critical for formulation matching.
