Solutions

Clean-Label Enzyme Technology

Clean label without the performance trade-off.

Enzyme-based systems that run on real production lines

Clean label is becoming standard for retail and foodservice programs, but switching often hurts shelf life, dough machinability or texture. Novo’s enzyme-based dough conditioners and freshness systems are validated on production lines, not only in the lab.

  • Simple, recognizable ingredient declarations
  • Enzyme-based conditioning and freshness systems
  • No artificial preservatives or emulsifiers where alternatives exist
  • Technical support for dosage optimization and plant trials
