Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Flour

Avena Sativa (Oat) Kernel Flour is produced by finely milling the dehusked oat groat, yielding a powder rich in beta-glucan polysaccharides, starch, proteins, and dietary fiber that collectively contribute to its binding and structural properties. Its naturally high beta-glucan content is particularly valued in chew and solid matrix formulations, as it forms a cohesive, slightly viscous network when hydrated, helping to hold compressed or extruded matrices together without synthetic binders. Formulators select this ingredient not only for its functional binding capacity but also for its clean-label, gluten-free certified status and the added consumer appeal of oat-derived nutrition and skin-soothing associations.
