Soy Lecithin

Soya lecithin liquid is a mixture of phosphatides and soya oil from soybeans comprising phospholipids, an invaluable ingredient in the industry. It’s a natural emulsifier and stabilizer with many uses.

Soy Lecithin comes in one of two forms: a homogeneous, viscous liquid or a homogeneous, free-flowing powder in which small friable lumps are permitted. The substance contains no additives that alter taste or odor – both of which remain typical of soy. It takes on a raw material color ranging from dark brown to yellow-gray to light straw. Soy Lecithin is extracted from soybeans and is a by-product of oil refining.
Soy Lecithin has emulsifying and stabilizing properties, i.e. it enables the formation of emulsions, increases the viscosity of the product and influences its better consistency. It can also be a source of protein in food.

The storage period of Soy Lecithin in its original packaging is 24 months from the date of manufacture. The product should be stored in a dry, clean and ventilated place. The product should be processed immediately after opening or protected from external influences.

Foodcom S.A. supplies its Business Partners with Soy Lecithin in powder form in cartons and bags of 20 or 25 kg. The emulsifier in liquid form is supplied in 1000 kg IBC containers or 200 kg metal drums.
