Our Nutracasing vegetarian sausage casings are an edible, plant-based alternative designed for vegetarian and vegan products. Made from natural, renewable, water-soluble raw materials, they offer excellent texture, surface appearance, and reliable performance in a wide variety of applications. Available in a range of diameters and supplied in shirred tubes for convenience, these casings work smoothly on all commonly used automated sausage stuffing machines, making them ideal for both small and large-scale production.
Certified Kosher and Halal, GMO-free, and non-allergenic, Nutracasing provides a sustainable and versatile solution for food producers. Whether used for fresh, brewed, or smoked sausages, these casings deliver consistent results that meet the high standards of today’s plant-based industry. With their clean-label credentials and ability to enhance both product integrity and consumer appeal, Nutracasing offers everything you need to support innovation in meat-free and alternative protein processing.
Soya Protein Powders
Our soya protein powders are designed to support innovation in plant-based food manufacturing. Whether you’re developing meat alternatives such as plant-based burgers, sausages, kebabs, nuggets, or ready meal components, our range of isolates and concentrates provides the functional performance you need to achieve consistent, high-quality results.
Soya protein powders deliver excellent binding and stabilisation of fat and water, making them ideal for emulsions, mince mix systems, and structured products. They provide high gel elasticity, emulsification, and water retention, while also offering a clean colour and neutral flavour profile that supports versatile formulation. In addition to improving texture and mouthfeel, soya protein helps optimise costs by enhancing yield and bulking ingredients without compromising quality. With reliable performance across a wide range of plant-based applications, our protein powders are a trusted choice for processors looking to create products that meet both consumer expectations and commercial demands.
Rusk, Gluten Free Rusk & Oatmeal
Our breadcrumb and rusk products are developed to support plant-based producers creating burgers, sausages, meat-free stuffing mixes, pies, and other compound foods. We also supply oatmeal and related ingredients for innovative plant-based recipes inspired by traditional favourites.
We offer a wide range of rusk options from trusted brands, including Kerry Rusk, Ripon, and Newleyweds. The range covers Pinhead Rusk, Medium Rusk, Superfine Rusk, Gluten-Free Rusk and more—giving plant-based processors versatile tools to achieve the desired texture, bite, and consistency in their finished products.
Enhancers & Binders for Plant-Based Production
Our Enhancers & Binders give plant-based products reliable structure, bite, and juiciness. From starches and fibres to emulsifiers and functional proteins, they improve texture, moisture retention, and process tolerance across burgers, sausages, nuggets, and ready meals.
Developed with clean-label options and compliance in mind, they help extend shelf life, reduce purge, and keep costs predictable—without compromising plant-based credentials. Our technical team can advise on dose rates and trials so you hit target specs fast.
