Concentrated juice: Cloudy and clarified

Lemon juice concentrate is the juice extracted from the fruit, carefully treated to remove the seeds. This concentrate is rich in citric acid and other excellent natural antioxidants, in addition to containing the natural sugars of the fruit. Thanks to its sugar concentration, it has a long shelf life, and its color maintains its natural appearance, preventing deterioration.

Clarified juice is obtained by filtering natural lemon juice to remove solid particles and impurities. Clarified lemon juice has a transparent appearance and is used as an additive in drinks, ice cream or dairy products.

Our factory allows us to adapt to customer specifications upon request. Our experience in the juice market has a qualified team and advanced process technology combined with Italian and American technology for extraction. A standard recipe after years of processing leads to the development of a customer's unique specifications for a long-term agreement.
