Introduction
Tenao-F1 (TO002-SC) is an all-in-one compound quality improver combining functional phosphates, hydrocolloids, select enzymes, and complementary flavorings. Designed to streamline manufacturing workflows, it delivers enhanced binding, elasticity, and water-retention in surimi while lowering overall raw material costs and stabilizing product sensory qualities throughout the shelf life.

Functions and Applications
Key Characteristics
- User-friendly composite improver that simplifies handling and production.
- Powerfully increases cohesiveness, chew texture, and water-holding capacity.
- Maintains structural stability throughout extended distribution.
- Reduces raw material usage and total recipe cost.
Target Applications
- Processing of commercial surimi products.
- Not recommended for use in raw frozen surimi blocks.
Usage Guidelines
- Dissolve in ~15 parts warm water and stir until fully dissolved, or disperse directly in high-shear processing equipment with other ingredients.
- Alternatively, add powder and ice water directly to surimi prior to chopping.
Addition Rate: 0.8%–2.0% based on total meat weight.
Packaging & Storage
Package: 25 kg/bag (Custom particle sizes, forms, and packaging options available upon request).
Storage: 12 months at ambient temperature (store sealed in a cool, dry place; use promptly after unsealing).
