Archer Daniels Midland Co., Decatur, Ill., recently announced its intention to expand the production of Clarisoy under its exclusive license and production agreement with Burcon NutraScience Corp., which grants ADM the right to produce and market the line of clear, soluble soy protein products.

“As more and more food and beverage customers look to incorporate Clarisoy into their products, we want to be ready to serve their needs,” said Bruce Bennett, vice-president of ADM’s foods and wellness group. “Consumer preferences are driving demand for protein, and our food and beverage customers look for innovative ingredients like Clarisoy as they develop new products that support growing health and wellness trends around the world.”

The highly soluble and versatile protein ingredient may be incorporated into a range of products, including sports drinks, fruit and vegetable juices, or to replace dairy proteins.
