Arjuna Natural Extracts has launched X-tend, its natural preservatives range that keeps food fresh and increases shelf life.

X-tend addresses three major food trends: natural, clean label and food safety. The new line consists of distinctive formulations of proprietary blends of essential oils and oleoresins. Arjuna’s R&D team identified a unique selection of botanical extracts possessing antimicrobial activity and comprehensively tested them in multiple food and beverage applications. The sensory profiles indicated no change in taste or mouthfeel.
