The circular solution for citrus peels

Do you like to drink fresh juice? The press devices in supermarkets and catering establishments deliver a huge amount of orange peels. PeelPioneers has the mission to save all citrus residues and convert them into valuable ingredients. By doing so we offer the citrus residues a second life.

We extract natural ingredients from the peel which are widely used in food products, cosmetics and cleaning products. This way, we reuse 100% of the peel. See here which ingredients are suitable for your application.

In our innovation lab we constantly research how to obtain more value out of the peels. As a result of that research we launch the Finix citrus fiber, which provides firmness, structure and the right mouthfeel to, for example, meat substitutes and muffins. By using our ingredients, you are part of the circular solution. This is how we make a difference together!
