Fibalance™ PHGG has been honored with the PHGG innovation award at the FBIF Wow Food Innovation Awards — widely recognized as one of the most authoritative accolades in the global food and beverage industry. Developed by ZymeBase Inc., Fibalance™ PHGG received the “Best Technology Innovation Award” in the Ingredients Track.

For the first time, the FBIF Wow Awards introduced a dedicated Ingredients Track, focusing on critical ingredients and foundational technology innovations in the food and beverage industry. This PHGG innovation award underscores Fibalance’s position as a leading provider of partially hydrolyzed guar gum (PHGG), a premium prebiotic soluble fiber trusted by food manufacturers worldwide.

Fibalance PHGG is produced through a proprietary enzymatic hydrolysis process that transforms native guar gum into a low-viscosity, fully water-soluble dietary fiber. With 85% fiber content and a molecular weight of 20,000 Da, the ingredient dissolves clearly in beverages without altering taste or texture — a key advantage for functional food and beverage applications. Additionally, Fibalance PHGG holds Monash University Low-FODMAP certification, making it an ideal choice for IBS-friendly and gut health products.

The PHGG innovation award reflects growing industry demand for science-backed, gentle fiber ingredients. Unlike traditional fibers that may cause bloating or discomfort, PHGG is fermented slowly along the entire colon, producing short-chain fatty acids while minimizing gas. This recognition reinforces the company’s dedication to connecting with food manufacturers, formulators, and nutrition professionals who seek high-quality soluble fiber ingredients.

ZymeBase will continue to focus on innovative ingredient R&D, providing the food industry with science-driven, gentle ingredient solutions that meet the evolving needs of global consumers and manufacturers.
