Global protein manufacturer BHJ Ingredients says it is introducing 'the world's first functional chicken protein' at this month's international trade fair IFFA in Germany.

Scanpro FCP 75/SF is designed for global poultry and chicken meat processors looking to add value and save on recipe costs without compromising on quality or flavour.

It's designed for use in cold meats, marinated chicken, nuggets, burgers and meatballs. Its technical benefits include improved texture, firmness and succulence with a good protein-to-water binding ratio of 18.

Allergen-free and halal-approved, it can also improve slicing yields and reduce purge in pack for manufacturers of reformed, injected, ground and emulsified chicken products.

"Scanpro FCP 75/SF is a major development for the global poultry meat processing industry," says Asger S Jacobsen, chief executive and president of BHJ Ingredients worldwide.

"Following worldwide demand for a functional chicken protein, we are confident there is a real appetite for our latest product innovation."
