In the meat industry, synthetic antioxidants play a crucial role in preserving the quality and extending the shelf life of meat products. By effectively inhibiting the degradation of fats and oils, these antioxidants prevent the development of off-flavors, rancidity, and discoloration, ensuring that meat products maintain their desired sensory attributes. Corbion's new antioxidants are more sustainable than their synthetic counterparts, which makes them the perfect option for [eco-conscious meat preservation methods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cultivated-meat). “Corbion’s antioxidants are derived from natural sources such as rosemary and acerola, a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to synthetic antioxidants, meeting the demand for environmentally sustainable meat products, appealing to conscious consumers and helping producers stand out in the market,” Cristiane Marangoni, application manager at [EMEA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shield-v-plus-dry), explains.
