LEMONCONCENTRATE
Pomegranate Ingredients for Food & Beverage
Innovation

Standard pomegranate juice concentrate is supplied at 70° Brix (±0.5). 65° Brix and custom Brix are available on volume contracts, along with low-, medium- and high-acidity profiles.

Aseptically filled pomegranate juice concentrate has an 18–24 month shelf life stored cool and dry; frozen storage at −18°C extends it further. The clock starts from the processing date printed on every pallet label.

Pomegranate is one of the most adulterated juices on the market: a landmark study using the IMAS authenticity algorithm found only 6 of 23 commercial pomegranate juices met all criteria (Zhang et al., J. Agric. Food Chem. 2009), with grape, apple, pear and aronia concentrates the usual additions. Authenticity is therefore a commercial risk, not a theoretical one. Every batch we release carries a Certificate of Analysis with Brix, acidity, colour and full lot traceability from orchard origin through to delivery, and we can agree additional authenticity testing against your specification.

Our Pomegranate ingredients are supplied under IFS certification, with Halal, Kosher and EU Organic (Regulation 2018/848) certificates available on specific pomegranate lines. Your first commercial order ships with the complete certificate pack.

Typical industrial MOQ is around 5–10 metric tons per pomegranate reference, depending on product and packing. R&D samples are available from 500 g; full container-load pricing often applies from about 20 MT per order.

Pomegranate ingredients ship in 3 L and 10 L bag-in-box, 200 L aseptic drums, 1,000 L IBC totes, 24,000 L flexi-tanks in reefer containers, and 25,000 kg road tankers for bulk European delivery.

Clear pomegranate concentrate is depectinised and filtered to a bright, transparent liquid for clear juices and blends. Cloudy pomegranate concentrate keeps its natural cloud and pulp for a fuller mouthfeel and fresh-pressed appearance.

Deionized pomegranate concentrate is passed through ion-exchange resins to strip colour, acids and minerals, leaving a near-neutral natural sweetener. It is used to standardise Brix and add natural sweetness without carrying pomegranate flavour or colour into the formulation.

Acidity grades let you tune the sweet/tart balance of a blend. Low-acidity concentrate gives a mild, rounded, sweet profile; medium is a balanced all-purpose grade; high-acidity delivers a sharper, brighter taste often used to lift multi-fruit blends and ciders.

To reconstitute to single-strength juice (about 11–12° Brix), blend roughly 1 part 70° Brix concentrate with about 6 parts water — plus aroma add-back if specified. Exact ratios are provided on each batch technical sheet.

We source pomegranate concentrate from selected EU and global origins, with Southern-Hemisphere supply for year-round availability — selected for Brix, acidity balance and colour.

Yes. EU Organic (Regulation 2018/848) certified pomegranate concentrate, puree and NFC are available on request with full organic chain-of-custody documentation and separate organic production runs where required.

Yes. Beyond standard pomegranate lines we produce pomegranate-based fruit and vegetable blends (e.g. pomegranate–carrot, cucumber–corn–pomegranate, broccoli–pomegranate) and custom Brix, acidity and cloud specifications on volume contracts, with technical support at no extra charge.

Each pomegranate shipment carries a Certificate of Analysis (CoA), packing list, lot/batch number and full traceability data. Allergen statements, patulin and pesticide-residue reports and Halal/Kosher/organic certificates are available on request.

Pomegranate juice concentrate is used to reconstitute pomegranate juice and nectars, to build multi-fruit and juice-drink blends, and as a natural sweetener in ciders, flavoured waters, dairy (yoghurt and fruit-on-the-bottom), bakery fillings, breakfast cereals and granola bars, sauces (including pomegranate sauce and marinades) and baby food. At 70° Brix it is roughly 68–70% natural sugars, so a small dose delivers strong sweetening.

Clear pomegranate concentrate is depectinised and filtered to a bright, transparent liquid for clear juices, RTD blends and syrups. Cloudy concentrate keeps its natural cloud for a fuller mouthfeel and a fresh-pressed appearance. Both are pressed from arils separated from the bitter rind; the difference is the filtration step, not the fruit.

70° Brix pomegranate juice concentrate contains roughly 68–70 g of natural sugars per 100 g, so on a sweetness basis about 1 kg of concentrate provides the sweetening of around 0.65–0.70 kg of sugar (fructose is sweeter than sucrose, so perceived sweetness can be higher). Deionized pomegranate concentrate is used the same way when you want the sugars without pomegranate flavour or acidity — typical for sweetened-only-with-fruit and no-added-sugar claims.

For infant and baby-food applications we supply low-acidity pomegranate concentrate and pomegranate puree produced to tighter patulin limits (typically 10 µg/kg for baby food versus the standard ≤50 µg/kg), with EU Organic grades available. Pomegranate puree adds body and mild flavour, while low-acidity concentrate provides gentle natural sweetness in cereals, pouches and fruit blends.
