Natural Extracts and Concentrates

Liquid Concentrates

These are produced by infusion, percolation, and distillation of the raw material with a hydroalcoholic solution and subsequent vacuum concentration. Thanks to their fluid nature concentrates are widely used in water-based products that are processed at room temperature.

An ultrasound system is employed to speed up the extraction process, even at low temperatures. This is particularly important when using raw materials that need to be processed quickly in order to maintain the original flavour.

This range was originally aimed at intermediate products for the liqueur industry. Today, production is characterised by a wide range of top-quality natural extracts, produced using automated extraction and purification stages. Laboratory controls guarantee consistency through state-of-the-art analytical systems.

The table below illustrates the ingredients available and whether they are also available in organic form.

Powdered Concentrates

Spray dried ingredients obtained from the concentrates, which can also be encapsulated to give the aromatic ingredients a longer shelf life. The encapsulation material is based on fully water-soluble carbohydrate. Low water activity and the encapsulation material ensure excellent stability over the product’s shelf life.

The table below illustrates the ingredients available and whether they are also available in organic form.

Lipo Extracts

Oil-based ingredients obtained by extracting and subsequently filtering the aromatic components of oil-soluble raw materials. They are used as a base for the production of flavoured oils and fatty or oil-based products. A proprietary system is used to extract the oily components of aromatic plants using vegetable oils (mainly olive and sunflower) and their subsequent separation using gravity and vacuum filtration.

Flavours

The years of experience gained in the field of flavourings and the know how built up over many years of analysing the aromatic components of raw materials has enabled Real Aromi to reproduce these in a range of both natural and nature identical ingredients. Our flavours are successfully used in many sectors of the food industry.
