Natural Preservative (Oregano Natural Preservatives-ONP)
Description of the Business Concept The Bakto Flavors Company works on screening for natural preservatives from aromatic and medicinal plants, indigenous to Europe and the Middle East. Work is carried out in collaboration with the ARO, Israel. We found plant species, such as oregano with very high content of anti-oxidants that protect foods and personal products.
Bakto Flavors developed an innovative manufacturing process for extraction of natural products from plants. The process makes use of enzymes to recover anti-oxidants. This technology can be used for extraction of other plant-derived materials. It can be applied to the extraction of colors, flavors, pharmaceuticals and other compounds.
Our competitive advantage is knowledge of plants, skill in plant production, extraction of antioxidants, worldwide contact with growers and novel extraction method.
The Opportunity and Strategy All food contains some forms of preservative. Preservatives serve as either anti-oxidant or anti-microbial or both. There is a long list of preservatives used in food, some which are very effectives and some which are not. Many of these preservatives cause allergies and other health problems. Plants produce their own anti oxidant and anti microbial agent. We make use of this principle and screen many plants. Our opportunity is the use of a plant extract that are commonly used as foods and extract the natural preservatives from them. There is a growing market need for natural food products including natural preservatives this is an opportunity for the production of preservatives, using biotechnology to provide natural products with consistent quality at a cost that can compete with other synthetics preservatives.
The Competitive Advantages We discovered new plants containing high amount of antioxidant. We will make use of a new extraction technology. We are offering few different product lines: water-soluble, oil soluble, clear and odorless product.
The working protocol offers high efficiency in product recovery. We will capitalize on the market preference for natural strong preservatives and offer a product line with high and consistent quality at a competitive cost.
ONP Natural Preservative may be labeled as Natural Plant Extract, Natural Flavor, or used as a processing aid. For more information on food preservatives http://www.pueblo.gsa.gov/cic_text/food/foodpres/foodpres.txt
