Fruit Fillings designed for your needs
Origins
At Puratos the ORIGIN of where our fruit comes from is paramount giving you peace of mind through the Puratos supplier code of conduct and with local legislation, ensuring traceability. Our farm in Kent, Puratos Fourayes is a true field to fork story you can share with consumers, where our Bramley Apples are grown and processed on site, delivering delicious Bramley Apple fruit fillings and innovative inclusions.
Higher Fruit Content
For customers looking for naturalness and high fruit content or fruit ID, the Topfil range delivers the real taste of nature with only the best selected fruits. Topfil is a range of delicious fruit fillings with up to 85% fruit content, less sugar and less additives. This range has enhanced flavour, texture and natural visual appeal, and is the perfect solution for consumers looking for natural products.
Performance
Our high performance jams offer you bespoke solutions for bake stability and long shelf life finished goods. Our Vivafil Bake-In range is designed to maintain the texture and consistency even when exposed to high baking temperatures, and our Vivafil X-Tend range is designed to prevent moisture migration over shelf life. These traditional fruit fillings are made with real fruit for a delicious natural fruit flavour.
Fruit Sourcing
Our fruit sourcing programme aims to embed sustainability through the entire value chain, from the sourcing of raw materials to the usage of products by customers and consumers.
In the UK, Puratos Fourayes brings to life our commitment to sourcing local fruits and specific varieties for a differentiated taste, while offering transparency to customers and consumers. The BRC AA+ rated factory is surrounded by 100-acres of English Bramley apple orchard. Using apples from our orchards and soft fruits from other local farms, Puratos Fourayes is able to offer farm to fork traceability on some of our delicious fillings and jams.
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. Together, along with the nearby farms to Puratos Fourayes, we are Red Tractor Farm Assured. We buy soft fruit, including strawberries and raspberries, from nearby farms that don't meet the visual standards of retailers and might otherwise go to waste. These quality local fruits are the ideal product for our jams, purees, and fruit fillings. Our sustainable practices at Fourayes help to preserve wildlife on the farm and include bug hotels placed in every orchard to help create biodiversity and regulate pest control naturally. Our beehives on the farm help with pollination. On the rest of our site, our Water Treatment Plant recycles rainwater, and our Dynamically Controlled Atmosphere helps us reduce fruit waste as we can store fruit for up to 13 months alongside our Ultra Low Oxygen Storage which can store fruit for a few months.
At Puratos we value all different aspects of our fruit fillings business: natural taste, cleaner label, sourcing expertise, great performance and excellent consumer understanding.
