Algogel™ and Satialgine™ Alginates

Under its Algogel and Satialgine brands, Algaia provides high quality eco-friendly alginates extracted from the fresh seaweed of the Mer d’Iroise. Alginate is a naturally-occurring polysaccharide produced from brown algae. It demonstrates versatile texturizing properties as a powerful thickening agent, gelling agent, emulsifier, stabilizer or moisture retainer for a wide range of applications.
It is applied in many food categories such as ice cream, snacks, dressings, puddings, creams, processed cheese and powdered products. It has also a unique property to create non thermo-reversible gels useful for vegetable or meat chunks, casings and stuffings. As consumers tend to reduce animal-based food, alginates also help maintain a pleasant mouthfeel and retain moisture in many vegan or plant-based alternatives.
