German ingredient specialist Loryma has expanded its Lory Bind portfolio with a wheat-based “declaration-friendly” alternative to conventional binders such as methylcellulose, as a clean label solution for plant-based fish and meat alternatives.
“By using texturates and the new binding ingredient, manufacturers can replicate the typical structure and authentic mouthfeel of nuggets, schnitzels and salami and formulate foods with short ingredient lists,” highlights the company.
Norbert Klein, head of R&D at Loryma, explains: “This new Lory Bind variant marks another milestone in the development of clean label binders for the vegan food industry.”
“This solution not only aligns with consumer expectations but also supports manufacturers in producing plant-based products entirely free from e-numbers.”
Moreover, the protein contained in the binder gives vegan meat alternatives a nutrient profile that closely resembles the original.
A versatile ingredient
Loryma’s binding solution targets optimal binding and elastic texture in meat, along with a wide range of vegan applications, suitable for both hot and cold consumption.
The wheat-based ingredient is easy to handle and allows manufacturers to use their usual meat processing technology for the production of plant-based substitutes, states the company.

Replacing methylcellulose
Most of the meat alternatives in the market today contain a long list of ingredients, rendering them “ultra-processed” products and risks rejection from consumers. One of the more popular of these is methylcellulose, which the F&B industry is nclick="updateothersitehits('Articlepage','External','OtherSitelink','Loryma develops methylcellulose substitute to optimize binding and elastic texture in alt-meat','Loryma develops methylcellulose substitute to optimize binding and elastic texture in alt-meat','341411','https://www.foodingredientsfirst.com/news/protein-reinvented-companies-showcase-award-winning-meat-and-plant-based-concepts-at-ife-manufacturing.html', 'article','Loryma develops methylcellulose substitute to optimize binding and elastic texture in alt-meat');return no_reload();">aiming to reduce its dependence on.
