SunOpta Inc. has expanded its portfolio of fiber products to include MultiFiber blends, SunOpta Soy Fiber blends and SunOpta Pea Fiber. All MultiFiber products deliver a concentrated source of dietary fiber with a smooth texture and bland flavor. These ingredients are expected to provide value for food and beverage manufacturers who are looking for ratios of soluble and insoluble fibers similar to what occurs naturally in foods. SunOpta Soy Fiber Blends provide a combination of functional fiber and protein that increases yield, moistness and maintains desired firmness in meat products. The SunOpta Ingredients Group has also entered a distribution agreement with Best Cooking Pulses of Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, Canada, which will produce pea fiber under the SunOpta brand.
