Reliable color & microbiological protection in one system
NATSAN-1618 combines stable color development with microbiological protection and enables the production of meat products without added nitrite. The two-component system includes a coloring agent for the typical red color of cooked products as well as a microbiologically active component against listeria, lactic acid bacteria, and other germs. Suitable for cooked sausages as well as injection products, it leaves no detectable nitrite residues in the final product. Manufacturers benefit from extended shelf life, authentic color, and a clean-label-friendly ingredient profile – without compromising process safety.
Future-proof production: meet the demand for “nitrite-free”
The demand for nitrite-free meat products is growing rapidly – clean-label trends, regulatory pressure, and consumer preferences are making alternatives indispensable. For manufacturers, this means the challenge of ensuring color, shelf life, and product safety without traditional curing agents. NATSAN-1618 provides a reliable solution: free from declarable nitrite or celery extract, technologically effective, and fully aligned with modern consumer expectations. This system supports future-proof product development that emphasizes transparency, food safety, and traceable ingredients.
