OLESSENCE™  — Olive Extract Blends for Clean Label Shelf Life Extension

OLESSENCE™ is a new plant-derived extract blend that utilizes the power of olive extract to improve the oxidative stability of food products. 

Harnessing the power of olive extract with other plant extracts, such as rosemary extract and green tea extract, can help reduce cost-in-use and improve shelf life.


Elevate Food Quality and Shelf Life with the Next Generation of Plant Extracts

Using plant extracts to protect food formulations and maintain quality, freshness, and flavor has evolved from a trend to an industry expectation. Retailers continue to push for longer shelf life, while consumers demand clean label ingredient statements. This shift away from long‑used synthetic antioxidants creates both challenges and opportunities for food manufacturers.

Plant extracts help maintain quality, reduce oxidation, and preserve product appeal. OLESSENCE supports this need by working as a free radical scavenger—helping slow flavor degradation in oxidation‑prone foods, similar to rosemary extract but with enhanced performance through olive extract synergy.

OLESSENCE™ R — Optimized Oxidation Protection for Poultry Processors

OLESSENCE™ R is a powerful, clean label solution crafted specifically for poultry processors who need reliable protection against oxidation—and more flexibility than rosemary extract can offer alone.

Formulated with a synergistic blend of rosemary extract and olive extract, OLESSENCE R delivers enhanced performance, helping processors improve shelf life and fresh sensory attributes, especially in poultry, where rosemary extract usage can be limited due to flavor thresholds.

Designed for Poultry's Unique Challenges

Poultry is particularly susceptible to lipid oxidation, resulting in:

  • Early flavor deterioration
  • Rapid discoloration
  • Reduced shelf life
  • Off-odors that impact consumer appeal

Traditional rosemary extract can help—but often requires usage levels that may affect flavor or run up against application limits. OLESSENCE R solves this problem.

Key Benefits of OLESSENCE™ R

  • Improves shelf life: Reduces lipid oxidation to maintain freshness throughout distribution and display.
  • Protects flavor and quality: Maintains appealing fresh flavor that is essential for poultry, especially ground products.
  • Versatile across processing methods and applications: brines, marinates, injections, ground systems.
  • Heat-stable protection: Performs well through cooking and further processing.
