Sensus America and Ganeden Form Strategic Fiber Probiotic Alliance
09 Jul 2015 --- Sensus America, part of Netherlands based inulin manufacturer Sensus, and Ganeden, the Cleveland, OH based manufacturer of patented strains of probiotics have formed a strategic alliance. Through the alliance, the companies have created Frutalose PRO; a liquid prebiotic, chicory root fiber syrup blended with the highly stable probiotic, GanedenBC30 (Bacillus coagulans GBI--30, 6086).
Frutalose PRO was created by combining chicory root based Frutalose SF75, which is a prebiotic liquid inulin fiber, with the probiotic GanedenBC30; this allows food and beverage manufactures to design products that provide a multitude of health benefits. This highly stable ingredient combination is a low calorie and low sugar, clinically-proven symbiotic, designed to maximize health benefits to the consumer; particularly in the areas of protein utilization, and digestive health.
The alliance underscores the companies’ shared vision of improving quality of life through innovative food ingredient solutions. A combination of Sensus’ scientific and technical expertise in the area of innovative inulin based solutions and Ganeden’s leadership in probiotic innovations will bring pre/probiotic fortification solutions to the yogurt industry as well as the food and beverage industry in general.
Andrew Lefkowitz, President of Ganeden commented: “Partnering with an industry leader such as Sensus will enable us to broaden the applications of GanedenBC30 into more functional food and beverage applications. The experience, knowledge and high standard of quality that Sensus brings to the chicory root fiber inulin market further supports our commitment to provide superior formulations to food and beverage industry.”
“We are excited to partner with an innovative probiotic company that shares a vision of improving quality of life through healthy ingredient fortification,” said Carl Volz, President of Sensus America. “By integrating our unique strengths, we will accelerate our business and growth opportunities by capitalizing on the unique opportunities and synergies that these innovative ingredients provide.”

Chicory inulin is a functional food ingredient that can replace sugar and fat while improving taste and mouthfeel. It also promotes digestive health by enriching the fiber content of food. Moreover, it has a prebiotic effect, stimulating the production of beneficial bacteria in the colon. Chicory inulin is recognized as the only plant-based prebiotic by The International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP).
Frutafit® inulin and Frutalose® oligofructose are plant-based, prebiotic, soluble dietary fibers with texturizing properties and a great taste that provide added health benefits. These ingredients are currently used in many applications, including dairy, bakery, cereals and cereal bars, infant nutrition, beverages, confectionery, ice cream, savory and healthcare nutrition.
The full range of Sensus chicory inulin and oligofructose products qualifies as natural according to the ISO 19657:2017 guideline. Chicory root fiber is today the only dietary fiber that is verified as natural according to ISO.
