We offer a range of inulin, oligofructose and fructooligosaccharide (FOS) fibres that can support partial sugar replacement while increasing the fibre content of food and beverage formulations. Depending on the type, they provide mild sweetness together with functions such as bulking, texture and improved mouthfeel. They have an energy value of approximately 2 kcal/g. Applications include dairy products, beverages, bakery products, cereals and nutritional formulations.
BENEO-scL85 is a soluble short-chain FOS with approximately 50% of the sweetness of sucrose. Its combination of mild sweetness and bulking properties makes it particularly suitable for sugar reduction and fibre enrichment across a wide range of food and beverage applications.

ORAFTI® and METLIN inulin have a relatively low sweetness compared with short-chain FOS and oligofructose. Their bulking, texturising and mouthfeel properties make them well suited to reduced-sugar and fibre-enriched formulations.

ORAFTI® and METLOS oligofructose provide mild sweetness, typically around 30–50% of that of sucrose together with useful bulking properties. They are particularly suitable for formulations where both sugar reduction and increased fibre content are desired.
ORAFTI® SYNERGY1 is an oligofructose-enriched inulin combining fibre enrichment with bulking, texture and mouthfeel functionality. It is suitable for a wide range of reduced-sugar and fibre-enriched food and beverage formulations.
