Vinegar powder patent
Corbion has been granted a European patent for its vinegar powder, covering a composition and process for producing the powdered vinegar, and use of it as a preservative in meat and other food and beverages.
Vinegar is familiar to consumers, is a rich source of acetic acid and an inhibitor of microbes and pathogens. However, liquid vinegar isn’t always a viable choice. With Corbion’s powdered vinegar solution, manufacturers have a stable, free flowing choice. The powdered vinegars were developed early in this decade for natural meat and poultry products to extend shelf life and keep food safe while delivering consumer friendly labeling.
Equivalent patent applications are pending in the US.
