Product Description
As a premier supplier of innovative plant-based proteins, we introduce our Hydrolyzed Lupine Protein, a premium, highly digestible protein source derived from sustainably cultivated sweet lupin beans. Through a controlled enzymatic hydrolysis process, the native lupin protein is broken down into smaller peptides and free amino acids. This not only significantly enhances its digestibility and absorption rate but also improves functional properties such as solubility and stability across a wide pH range.
Our product is characterized by its neutral flavor profile and low allergenicity compared to common plant proteins like soy. It is an excellent, clean-label ingredient for formulating high-protein products that require excellent nutritional value and superior functionality. Ideal for the growing demand in sports nutrition, clinical nutrition, and health-focused food and beverages.
Types / Specifications Available
We offer Hydrolyzed Lupine Protein in several standardized grades:
Hydrolyzed Lupine Protein 85 (DH 10-15%)
High protein content with moderate hydrolysis. Excellent solubility, minimal bitterness. Ideal for general protein fortification.
01
Hydrolyzed Lupine Protein H (DH 20-25%)
Highly hydrolyzed for rapid absorption and enhanced solubility. Suitable for sports nutrition and medical nutrition products.
02
Custom Hydrolysis Profiles
We can tailor the Degree of Hydrolysis (DH), particle size, and flavor profile to meet specific application needs (e.g., ready-to-drink beverages, protein bars).
03
Flavored / Blended Versions
Available blended with natural flavors, sweeteners, or other plant proteins.
04
Characteristics
High Digestibility & Absorption: Enzymatic hydrolysis pre-digests the protein, leading to superior bioavailability and reduced gastric discomfort.
Excellent Solubility & Stability: Remains soluble and clear in acidic to neutral pH beverages, preventing sedimentation.
Low Allergenicity: Lupin is a non-major allergen in many regions (though allergen labeling laws apply) and is an excellent alternative to soy, dairy, or gluten.
Neutral & Clean Taste: Advanced processing minimizes the bitter peptides often associated with hydrolyzed proteins.
Rich in Essential Amino Acids: Particularly high in lysine and arginine, complementing the amino acid profile of other plant proteins.

Our Hydrolyzed Lupine Protein is manufactured through a state-of-the-art process: Selected Dehulled Sweet Lupin Beans → Grinding & Defatting → Protein Extraction & Isolation → pH Adjustment → Enzymatic Hydrolysis (with specific food-grade proteases) → Enzyme Inactivation (Heat Treatment) → Filtration → Ultrafiltration (to remove bitter peptides if required) → Spray Drying → Sieving & Blending → Packaging. The hydrolysis parameters are precisely controlled to achieve the desired DH and functional profile.

FAQ
Q: Is lupin protein hypoallergenic?
A: While lupin is an allergen and must be declared in many markets (EU, US, Australia), it is less commonly allergenic than soy or dairy. However, individuals with peanut or legume allergies should exercise caution.
Q: How does the taste compare to other hydrolyzed proteins (e.g., whey hydrolysate)?
A: Our process is designed to minimize bitterness. It has a much cleaner and less bitter profile compared to standard whey or soy hydrolysates, making it easier to formulate with.
Q: Is it suitable for vegan and gluten-free products?
A: Yes. It is 100% plant-based, vegan, and naturally gluten-free, with certifications available.
Q: What is the solubility like in cold water?
A: It exhibits excellent instant solubility in cold water, making it perfect for RTD applications and shaker bottles without clumping.
Q: Can you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, we provide 200-500g samples for qualified manufacturers and R&D teams to evaluate in their applications.
