Novonesis Launches Optiva Triticum to Help Pasta Manufacturers Navigate Wheat Volatility Without Compromising Quality Novonesis announced the launch of Optiva Triticum, a new biosolution that helps pasta manufacturers increase flexibility in wheat sourcing while maintaining the texture, firmness and eating experience consumers expect. Optiva Triticum enables greater use of soft wheat flour in pasta applications while supporting consistent quality across varying flour qualities and protein levels. Designed specifically for pasta production, Optiva Triticum strengthens and connects proteins within the pasta matrix, creating a more robust protein network. This improves the structural integrity of pasta made with different wheat flours, helping manufacturers achieve greater formulation flexibility without compromising product performance. In pilot-scale evaluations, pasta produced with Optiva Triticum delivered firmness improvements of up to 25% in spaghetti and up to 11% in short-cut pasta compared with control samples. The solution also reduced cooking water turbidity by approximately 25%, indicating lower starch release during cooking and contributing to an improved cooking experience. Consumer research conducted by Novonesis found that firmness and stickiness are among the most important factors consumers used to evaluate pasta quality. These qualities are usually staples of durum wheat, but Optiva Triticum allows producers to use a wider range of wheat flours while maintaining product quality. By enabling greater flexibility in flour sourcing and formulation, the solution can help manufacturers make more effective use of available raw materials while continuing to deliver a consistent consumer experience. Optiva Triticum helps future-proof pasta production and support the delivery of quality everyday foods, no matter the wheat. Annonce • Aug 12
